I got a P645N... and looking through the view finder I am surprise to find out that the 645N viewfinder window area appear to be larger than my P67II?

Is this true of just I am missing something?

Viewfinder size/magnification is a very complicated and somewhat convoluted topic.
The 645nII does have a .76x finder with 92% coverage, while the 67II prism is .70x, with 90% coverage. So it is smaller magnification wise, but with the larger frame size, you'd think it should still be bigger.
The lens on the camera also makes a difference AFAIK.
The 645 viewfinder often seems bigger and brighter than the numbers would suggest.

so in "actual size" which one is bigger?

In theory, it should be the 67II, but I unfortunately don't have both cameras on me to compare

The two system have very different finders. The 67II uses a roof pentaprism, while the 645 uses a trapezoid prism with a Keplarian finder. The trapezoid prism was used to save weight.
