I know that the additional consideratiosn when compiling for x64 is that some data types, like ints, can hold larger values. Are there any concerns?

VS2010, released a few days ago, can support compiling for x64 and x32, just like VS2008. The app is x32/86 only. I keep thinking that the app needs to be 64 bit however. What am I missing? Obviously this is not the case.

Thanks
