How much better are those on amd64?
If you have over 3 GB of memory then you need 64 bit. Otherwise, it is
mostly very specific scientific applications that need 64 bit: home
users will see no benefit. In _most_ cases.
I imagine the arguments where similar when operating systems moved from
16 bit to 32 bit. ;)
