Re: st: 64-bit Windows vs Linux
Thanks for the response. My question was comparing the performance stata
under the two OS, something the FAQ does not address (at least that I could
find). So I am interested in hearing about anyone's pratical experience
comparing Linux and 64-bit Win
Re: problems with 64 bit Win: I had read that 64-bit win either runs 32-bit
programs more slowly or not at all. I have no experience with it myself so I
do not know this to be true.

Please read the FAQs titled "What are the hardware requirements to run
Stata?" and
"What kind of performance increase can I expect in going from 32-bit
to 64-bit Stata?" at
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/win/64bit2.html and at
http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/win/pcreqs.html. What "bad things"
are you referring to?
