I'm running Win7 Ultimate x64 and I just downloaded Office 2010 and Visio 2010, since I'm able to run both x86 and x64 I decided to get both (I have an MSDN Subscription). However I know there's more support for x86 when it comes to Office products, but I'm curious if it'd be worth while to install x64?

I could always go x64 with the next version of Office when the support for it is better, what do you guys think?
 
How often, in running Office in the past, have you required support for any problem you couldn't get an answer to by posting the question on the net.

My vote is to go with the x64 if you are able.
 
Isnt all the com objects and vba x86 only, so any files with a macro in it will fail?

This is why I'd consider just sticking with x86 for now, but I thought I would ask..
