MSDE 64-bit?

Hi there
Quick question.. can you get a 64-bit version of MSDE or do you need to
upgrade to SQL Server 2005 Express?
Thanks,
DanNo, there's no 64 bit MSDE. In fact, according to BOL, there's no 64 bit Exp
ress either (only WOW64
support).

a 64 bit Windows OS.
EM64T processors definitely has this, while I believe Itanium has very limit
ed support for WOW64.
