32 or 64 bit Vista for flight simulator

[dimme]

I am planing to get a new MacPro in a few weeks, hopefully when the new ones are out. I want to put Vista on a drive for MS flight simulator. I also plan to install 4 gigs of memory. Should I get 64 bit Vista so I can address all the memory, as I understand it Vista 32bit will only see 3 gigs.

64 bit is EXTREMELY buggy!

The computer is finally on the way! MacPro 2.8 Geforce 8800. I am still looking for input on which Vista to get. I am thinking 64 bit because I have 6 gigs of memory. FSX will be all that I use windows for. I also own a copy of plain old XP Pro Should I just stick with that?

If all you're using it for is FS X, go with Vista. FSX was designed to run on Vista but they had to include xp support as Vista was delayed so many times.
