All my Xen installs are 64 bit. Representatives of the Xen Source
corporations,
the authors of Xen, have said that "64 bit isn't fully baked yet," and
won't
be out for another 3 months or so. That's why it's not in the commercial
product yet. I've certainly had bugs in my xen installations. Whether or
not
these are due to 64 bit, I have no idea. I merely take it as gospel that
when
the authors say something isn't ready, they probably know something that
I
don't. :)

Joe.
