I now understand that the 64 bit requirement is only for Sun systems.

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.
