All (well, very nearly all) the software I need is available in 64-bit versions, partially because I disdain proprietary software, so running 64-bit gives better performance with little cost. > Is it smart to hope "Gentoo AMD64 FAQ" will > be thiner and thiner during upcoming months? :-) Yes, it will. There will be fewer and fewer issues as 64-bit operation becomes the norm. My current advice is to read the FAQ and if anything mentioned is an issue for you, go with 32-bit. You lose some, but also gain some ease of use. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh
