I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and want to run a 64 bit Virtual Machine (VM) as well
It looks like the VPC only support 32 bit guest clients. Does anyone have real world experience with a 64 bit guest?

You want VirtualBox-ose from Oracle. It's free (the OSE means Open Source Edition), and does 64 bit as long as your host CPU and operating system are both 64 bit. (Apparantly since version 3.2 you can actually run a 64 bit guest on a 32 bit host as long as you have a 64 bit CPU and you only allocate 1 cpu to the guest. I have yet to prove this to myself yet.)
