I'm assuming you need an x64 processor to be able to run this?

Might be blatantly obvious to you techies, but not us mere mortals...

So what else is new in this version then? Is it worth doing if u already have XP???

May be an idea to just order the free cd from the same link like I did, save your bandwidth and then you've already got the file backed up.
