More Bits, More Browsers
Keeping up with the 64-bit server, Microsoft has released (last month) a 64-bit version of IE6 for Windows Server 2003 SP1/x64. The server will ship with both the 64-bit and the 32-bit versions, with the 32-bit connected to most of the UI entry points.
We found that in our own every day use of the 64-bit client, the 64-bit browser was difficult to use because web sites hadn’t authored common controls for 64-bit clients.
No word yet on any rendering implications.
I don’t understand.
Who in their right mind would be running IE on a Win2k3 server for anything but Windows Update, something that doesn’t run on anything but IE???
