[DUG] Delphi version for 64 bit

You can assume anything you want, that won't necessarily make it so.  ;)

To be completely accurate, they have *announced* a 64-bit beta but (as of 6
days ago anyway) that beta still has not yet begun.

Even if a first version is released later this year, it'll take 2 or 3
releases to make it usable for anything other than non-trivial GUI's or
non-GUI back-end processing.

At least that is what *I* am assuming.

Currently none.

Versions from Delphi 2 to Delphi XE (except for Delphi 8) compile to Win32.
Embarcadero has released a beta version of their 64-bit compiler to
beta testers. 

If you need Win64 bit executables have a look at Lazarus/Free Pascal
Compiler. This is similar to Delphi but can compile to Win64.

Cheers,
Colin
