"When"?
Win64 has been here for a number of years now, I think as far back as
NT supporting Alpha. I know for certain that Win64 has existed for as
long as the Itanium has been supported (as far back as Windows 2000).
Win64 also supports AMD64 today in Microsoft's beta/RC versions of
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
The reality is, it's very possible that Windows Server 2003 for x64 and
Windows XP for x64 will ship *without* support for native .NET
compilation. (AFAIK the x64 versions of the OS are supposed to happen
in the 1H of 2005, while .NET 2.0 is more towards 2H 2005).
