This is not correct.
Well half correct.
There are different kernels both the 32 and 64 bit version, it just depends on
which you load. You're correct though in that there's not a 32 or 64 bit
version like there is of windows.

to the very best of my knowledge there is no 32 bit version of Mac OSx, thus

Hello.
You are right, it says 64 bit kernel extensions no.
However, I have another question.
My macbook pro has 4 GB of ram, and it is expandable to 8.
How can they do that, if it is 32 bit mode? If I expand my memory will it be
used or it is a waste?

First of all, if you have not done anything, again, osx is all 32 bit mode.
That being said,
1. Open about this mac, by vo plus m
2. Open more info. This is the same as the system profiler.
3. Go down to the software section.
4. take a look at the software overview and it will tell you Kernel an

Hi!
Well, you're already booting in 32-bit by default, so you don't need to. It
becomes interesting if you boot into 64-bit, though. You may see performance
options, or they may be so minimal for you to notice. You may also get
incompatibility issues, though, in case a program doesn't support 6
I must confess to some curiosity as to how come you'd want to do that.

Hi Scott
Thanks a lot for that. I didn't think it'd be such a terrible boost, either,
but I was very curious to know. What about incompatibility?

I boot holding down the 6 and 4 and find I get a very slight boost if any. I
understand it's between 3 and 10% but anything I think I feel I honestly
believe is the placibo effect.
My VM seems a little snapper as well but again that could be my experience
playing tricks on me.

Hi!
Now that we are talking about 32-bit and 64-bit, I know that regular Macbooks
cannot boot into 64-bit mode. It also sounds like there is some confusion.
No Mac, Pro or otherwise, boots into 64-bit by default. You either have to set
it, or hold down 6 and 4 during startup. This is the kernel
Why would one wish to boot into 32-bit mode instead of 64-bit mode?

Hello all,
About a month ago someone wrote how to switch from 64 to 32 bit mode on a
macbook pro. Can someone please re post these instructions?
