Yes, you read it right...
Just got this alpha package from Fred and i simply had to give it a try asap:
Now if only i could get the debugger working with it!
Of course this is quite a while away from being fully usable,
and there is also the whole 4.20 Version to be done first.
But still... its a start

Unless that image is photoshoped, then it's not an april fools
On a 64-bit windows system, all (and I mean ALL) 32bit applications have a *32 after them. Native 64bit applications have no such denotions
However, it is april fools day, so it could be a photoshoped image

It is true!
I am one of the very early alpha tester.
And I can say: If you want to be one of the next alpha tester so send a PM to @freak. Hope we see us next time on the very early alpha tester forum.
Look here on my screenshot:

Heh, you noticed the compiler exe sizes are different
Anyways, if this is true, then I can use PB for all of my 64bit server side coding, instead of C#
