Perhaps Microsoft were saving money by releasing the Zune with support only for limited versions of their OS – they knew that enterprising software ferrets would dig out the best way to enable functionality of the DAP’s music store and sync software for Vista and others by themselves. Whatever their motivation, the mere fact that it’s another day means we get another hack to run Zune no matter your PC’s flavour. Today it’s the turn of Windows XP 64-bit edition.
With a few tweaks to a copy of the Zune software already installed on a 32-bit machine, as well as some registry work, full functionality is enabled. I wonder who’ll be first to get Zune running on a Mac?

In 2005 Intel releases Celeron D with 64-bit.
“A family of Intel’s value processors with 64-bit and Execute Disable Bit support includes Intel Celeron D processors 351, 346, 341, 336, 331 and 326 that work at 3.20GHz, 3.06GHz, 2.93GHz, 2.80GHz, 2.66GHz and 2.53GHz. Just like their brethren without EM64T, the new Intel Celeron D are equipped with 256KB L2 cache. The new microprocessors require a mainboard that sports 533MHz processor system bus, is equipped with Socket 775 and has a special BIOS that features EM64T.”
