    Just curious if anyone uses Vista Business x64 for gaming? I have Home Premium 32-bit on my Lenovo, but have 4GB RAM and would like to make full use of it. I have a full version license to Business x64. My main reason for using 4GB is I will be running lots of Virtual PC sessions and want to give those virtual PC's a decent amount of RAM. But still will want to play some games.

    Thanks.
