Hey! Just found this:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/1033/ordermedia

You can enter your code key and it will let you order 64bit DVD media for $10 shipped in the US.

Found the link here http://www.tabletquestions.com/windows-vista/39790-how-go-power-together-business-x86-x64.html

Looks like while they sent out 32bit media, the codes are good for 64bit too!

It worked just fine to install the x64 version. However, it appears I'm going to be stuck with the x32 version for a while.

I got mine awhile ago, I thought everybody knew about that I'm going to wait to install it until I rebuild my system, or reinstall Windows. I don't really need it right now, but who knows about the future.

If you notice, this thread started back in January. I was just following up for those that do searches, so the thread was complete.
