As a matter of fact, they claim that Sibelius will install as both a 32-bit version and a 64-bit version on 64-bit machines (I hope that's a user option -- I can't see having both versions) and it will work just fine (to a point) on 32-bit machines. What will be lacking is the ability to take full advantage of their new audio engine and new sounds. But at least for 64-bit machines, Sib7 is a true 64-bit program. -- David H.
