OK will try with some live CDs. Next question 32-bit or 64-bit has a
C2D
processor?
On a laptop, I see no advantage to running a 64-bit system.
Ron on a 64bit computer do you think it's better to run a 32bit OS?
I run a 64/32 system on my desktop. But that's because I've got 8GB RAM
(it's so darned cheap).
Thanks Ron, I run 32bit on 32bit computer and 64bit on 64bit computer,
not much difference, but the people that do the testing say 64bit is a
few seconds faster or so I read on the NET and I do try to keep up with
technology.

Why buy a 64 bit setup if your not going to use it ?
Because nowadays, it's getting hard (impossible?) to get a new
32-bit desktop processor. (Low-power chips not included.)
I bought mine for
a reason so I could use 64.
And I bought a computer so I could use the software.
I do not believe there are no advantages to
having it. Also I agree with the previous statement the more I use it,
and when and if I find bugs or problems I can submit these to the
appropriate people and hopefully we can get them resolved and bring more
people to 64 bit computing, my measly two cents.
64-bit computing isn't some Holy Destination. It's a means to an end.
If I were 25yo, though, I'm sure I'd have seen 64 bits as
intrinsically important.
