i am not sure about that. that depends on the companies which write
applications. if they aren't interested in x86-64 chips, they won't
port their apps.Or if they don't have the time to port, you have to
wait until they release one.  In both cases you would be happy to have
a multi-arch port so you can use the 32bit app. :-)
