Good God how many times does Process Explorer need to update?

God, another Itunes update with no support for Vista 64. They update like every other week, can’t they fix it!

Well, all of the releases are primarily bug fixes, so it’s not like you have to update. It will likely continue to work fine, but they probably figure that they should address any issues as soon as possible. I prefer to have a regularly updated program rather than one that isn’t updated at all.

I’ve heard a lot of complaints about that. I’m sure there are multiple reasons for them not taking the time to bump iTunes up to support 64-bit operating systems, but the biggest reasons is probably that they are trying to get more people over to the Mac’s where things “just work.” Heck, it took several months just for them to get a 32-bit version that was fully compatible with Vista.
