Carl,

That is something I heard as well from a SUN support guy a while ago.  As of 
NetBackup 7 Media and Master software is only supported on a 64-bit OS.  
Personally I don't believe this is a bad thing.  64-bit OS'es are around for 
quite some time now so it is time to adopt.  What I understood as well is that 
the admin console will be entirely browser based.  But that was just a rumour 
he said.
