On an existing business side of things, its far too expensive and complicated to move everyone onto 64Bit system and OS then upgrade every Application. I work for a group that has over 7300 Employees UK they use Windows XP Pro 32bit and office 2003 SP3.
They have a 3 year I.S Plan to move everyone onto Windows 7 32Bit, why not 64bit?? because of known software incompatibilities and Code has to be rewritten from scratch so developers charge more.
Keeping PowerArchiver as a 32bit application although its proven better at extracting than 64bit does not stop skeptics from questioning and in many ways slander the application on forum's, reviews, websites etc all just because it isnt using the more "Modern" 64bit. This in return can cause a domino decline on New Business and increase lapsed sales.
On my side of things, and companies i work closely with both inside my group and outside via charities or contracted assignments they all Compress to Send out large documents, images etc etc and also to backup large folder's on networked drives to then upload to a remote servers via FTP.... All methods the New PowerArchiver now features..
SO.. Having a program that is 64bit with a 64bit OS that can handle large archives faster is a welcome addition to what already is a great application.
My advise to ConeXware....
Finish 2011, work on a new website and then come 2013 Anounce "PowerArchiver X64 Toolbox Edition".
I would not do a 64bit Standard Edition, Why? Because I deem 64bit used more by Profesionals that deal with file archiving every day and that would fall under the new Toolbox edition.
