OK, I find myself with a 64 bit motherboard. What's the general consensus on the best distro for 64 bit here? I have googled it but most of the links were to forums with fairly uninformative discussions. Cheers, Jon.
My old laptop has a 64-but AMT Turion processor. I just installed Debian 32-bit on it. I really couldn't see any advantage to the 64-bit version. Maybe someone can enlighten me?
I've installed 64-bit SuSE on big Opteron systems in the past, but they were running some serious compute code that was optimised for 64-bit and gigabungies of memory. Really not sure it's worth it for home systems, but... ?
