Is Windows Vista a 32-bit OS or a 64-bit OS?

So is it more like Windows XP x64 with legacy support for 32-bit, or is it 100% compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit applications. I was reading on the Windows x64 website that a lot of the right click extensions and such don't work with Windows x64.

As far as I know there will be a 32-bit version and a 64-bit version. But the 64-bit version will support older 32-bit apps, you just need a 64-bit cpu to run it.
