They released FSX in 2006 that requires 4 GB to run properly with high end add ons. I plan to buy a new 64 bit PC soon after BOB is released. 64 Bit is the future and this future is very close. Most new PCs are delivered with 64 Bit windows version now. According to the latest Steam hardware survey 2/3 of all Windows 7 versions are already 64 Bit. Since SOW series should last for 10 years a 64 bit .exe will probably be necessary sooner than later to stay competitive. Of course most people still use 32 Bit operating system so any sim released this year should support it. Maybe in aspect it's a bad time to release anything that should last for years now, when transition from 32 to 64 bit is underway at full steam.
