Farewell 32 bit PPro and AE
Yup…Adobe has announced that future versions (starting with CS5) of Premiere Pro and AE will support only 64 bit systems on both Mac and Windows.
Adobe’s site has a FAQ here:
https://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/production/faq/
go down to “Support for 64 bit operating systems”…
It was inevitable…having enough RAM has been a constant issue with both AE and PPro for years, and cutting loose 32 bit legacy support will hopefully result in a stable platform.
Now if I could just get all the drivers for all the other components in my workstation to run properly under 64 bit, I’ll be a happy editor.
…and now my venerable Dell M90 will be frozen in time…ah well…onward.

I’m surprised there isn’t more notice of this…
I’ll be back-dating all my 32 bit machines to CS3 quite likely…
CS4 is a load for a 32 bit OS…
I have high hopes for Windows 7…Vista 64 has been a bit of a trick for peripheral drivers and that sort of thing.

I just pitched a tent in front of Best Buy for Win 7 🙂
But really, indeed the RAM requirements are just too much.
I can’t really see any other way around the issue. Hopefully less chips and boards to support will bring faster performance.Vince Becquiot
