If you ever had doubts about running your .NET 2.0 application on ITANIUM 64-bit platforms you can rest...

You forgot the serious issues:

1. VS.net 2005 code editor is about 5x slower on Windows XP Pro x64 than it is on Win XP Pro x86.
2. VS.net 2005 edit and continue doesn't work at all. Which considering how bad the support is natively, is no big deal.
3. If you set your processor affinity to X86 instead of "Any CPU" on an X64 version of Windows XP, you'll get GDI+ drawing issues (transparencies all screwed up, artifacting etc.) with Nvidia video cards (don't know about others, but likely the same deal) Hence if you need 32bit controls like TAPI, you're screwed.
4. If you set your Winforms project ot Any CPU so that it uses X64, forms will load the first time about 8-10x slower than they do when set to x86 or in .NET 1.1.

Good luck to anyone that really wants to use this configuration right now... it's a mess and if you thought VS.net 2005 was buggy under Windows XP Pro 32... wait until you see it under X64! It's way worse. (and that's saying something considering how bad it is under x86!

I cannot count how many times I've seen differing information about VS 2005's x64 support. Specifically, does the Standard Edition support x64 development?

Your blog entry, and the page you link to, indicate that it does not. However I asked this question on a different web log months ago and was told that Standard DOES support x64. (http://blogs.msdn.com/freik/archive/2005/11/02/488228.aspx) The product info page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx) has since been changed to say that Standard DOES support x64, so I assume that it actually does.
