32 or 64 bit distribution

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I have a laptop with a 64 bit cpu and 4GB of memory.
I have downloaded both fedora core 8 32 and 64 bit.
which one should i install?

i have read this post:
http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-tutorials-howtos-reference-material/69585-should-you-choose-32-bit-64-bit-linux.html
but it is dated 6 months ago.

My opinion is, the CPU is 64 bit so why not used it?
Does every package has to be installed for 64 bit support or can i run 32 bit application as well?

Chris
