Yep, it looks like Tiger (10.4) will have 64 bit pointer support for apps.

Is this a 'true' 64-bit OS? dunno, I'll leave that debate to the ComputerSci majors,
but 'a 64-bit version of libSystem' seems to imply it's integrated into userland apps
if needed by them.

And the monitors... 2560x1600 LCD anyone... too bad that Geforce 6800ultra isnt
watercooled as well, I bet that fan makes quite the racket.

Nothing a couple feet of tubing and a waterblock wouldnt solve, since you've already
got a pretty nice radiator and pump module in the CPU bay
