Not sure (dont think so), but I do know iTunes is 32bit only..

Itll be able to run it but there is limited driver support for the hardware in x64 (eg isight, trackpad etc may not work properly)
bit more info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot_Camp

Yeah it can run them, but there is lack of x64 drivers.

You'd be better off using VMware Fusion.

Bootcamp was a swine on my mates mbp with the 64bit version - very sketchy support.. the 2 finger scrolling didnt work...but vmware was much much better
