cool cool....should run a bit faster?
How much RAM do you have?
With 4GB then Vista 64 for sure. I'm not sure about running it off an external drive, might wanna google that one. Good luck.

I've had far fewer issues with 64-bit Vista than with any other Windows system I've ever had. I've never run it on an Intel Mac, but it's basically the same thing as any other PC, so I would bet that it works swimmingly.
Be careful buying software on eBay. No guarantee of legitimacy and not much recourse.

I thought Windows XP 64 was the only version NOT supported by bootcamp?
Maybe not officially, but if you google it, its working fine. Vista 64 OTOH is completely supported, and that's what he is going to use.

Windows 7 seems to be faster and better than Vista already, so that might be an idea.

grab the public beta of win7 x64 later today and see if it meets your needs? and if it does, just stick with that until the official retail release of it?

Not all of us are waiting in line... You can get it much faster elsewhere.
