Thumbs up 64bit = awesome

I just switched from 32bit kernel to 64bit. It does seem faster I must say.

Cool!

Not a bad idea. I find when prices start dropping to the medium range on anything the support from Linux community is excellent for that piece of hardware... my $0.02

Having said that, I got my mobo/cpu for $169.99 this month

Don't wait, do it now! Dual Cores are comming out, the prices if they don't drop now, will never drop.
... Now I have to get a Dual Core CPU ... *Sigh* ... Life on the bleeding edge of technology ...
