I don't care about 64-Bit OS [yet].


Most of my hardware uses 32-Bit P6/NetBurst based chips, one is an EM64T (I think they call it Intel 64 now), but all systems run a 32-Bit x86 os, no x86-64 !

I don't really see any value in using a 64-Bit operating system, unless I have a lot of RAM (>3gb), my dream machine would have about 6-8GB of ram and FreeBSD amd64, but I don't have a few thousand dollars :-P


I am just content, if the programmers that wrote my main-software understood pointers.
