(and maybe only me) You just now found out the Fedora comes in 64-bit form? For the most part anything you can get with 32-bit you can get RPMs built for 64-bit. (Within some limits). And the ones you can't get 64-bit (like flash, etc) you can run the 32-bit binaries without trouble. I run 64-bit on every machine and have no trouble. -- Recedite, plebes! Gero rem imperialem!
