Visual Studio 2008 or 2010 on 64-bit Machines?

I know many have asked the same question but I am still confused that does Visual studio 2008 or 2010 works with 64-bit computers? Here in this post the answer is that he can run Visual studio on Windows 64 bit OS? How?

Both can run on 64-bit machines.

Visual Studio is not available in 64 bit version, so internals will be in 32bit and they can run in 64bit (WOW enabled).

Also compiler can generate 32bit and 64bit output.

Though if you use the Edit and Continue functionality it won't work for 64bit apps and on a 64bit OS it seems to default to 64bit apps so you have to remember to change the target if you want to use that functionality.

Visual Studio 2008 and 2010 both work perfectly on 64-bit machines using the x86 installation.

Yes. They run on 64-bit machines. The included compiler can create 32-bit or 64-bit output.
