MOSS 2007 and WSS 3.0 are the last 32-bit versions of SharePoint

There, I said it.

So make sure your current servers will support 64 bit.

This was picked from Joel's blog, item #5.

5. Verify that the hardware standards list in your company supports x64 servers as this is the last version on 32- bit.  If this isn't something you've looked into.  Research 64-bit architectures and how they contribute to performance and scale.

Hey Sahil, I believe that MOSS 2007 currently can run on 64-bit as well as 32-Bit. Odd that they're dropping 32-Bit completely..nevertheless, there's probably sound reasoning for doing so.

You are right. It is 32 + 64 right now. I think it's good that they are dropping 32bit support, so they can concentrate on getting the 64 bit story right. Y'know the whole limited dev resources issue. Sahil
