It's not that easy but then it is.  You cannot have 64 bit multithreaded
capability unless you use Vista.  But some of your older programs will 
balk at Vista.  If you want optimum performance on select programs use
Vista.  If you want no hassle, stay with XP.

You didn't mention Ubuntu which may be the best of all worlds.  Check it out.
