Not true, the installer works fine on my Vista 64 box.  The tomcat6.exe program 
in the installer (and also in the .zip download) is set up for a 32-bit JVM, 
but it doesn't care if the OS is 32- or 64-bit.

Definitely a good idea.

Also wrong advice.  I've been running Tomcat on Vista 64 with both 32- and 
64-bit 1.6 JVMs without any problem.  Don't know what you messed up, but Tomcat 
6.0 works well with either 1.5 or 1.6 JVMs (but 1.6 is faster).
