Then I have to face weeks of 32 bit compatibility issues, unresolvable
library conflicts, and source code that won't build. It's bad enough
that I can't get Microsoft's Skype to run on this 32 bit system. I just
spent most of a week trying to get Scientific Linux 6.1 x86-64 to
cooperate. There are still too many 32 bit only applications to deal
with. Aside from that, I have to go back to work tomorrow because my
Christmas break is over. ;-)
As for KVM not working in 32 bit, I found it worked quite well in Fedora
14 32 bit. Can someone explain how making it 64 bit only is an
improvement? :-(
