Is it just that you should have applications compiled for 64-bit (so the usual problems with proprietary vendors refusing to support anything besides i386 or i686) or are there more? At least with x86-64 platforms, there's the possibility of using i386 a lot more painlessly than most platforms. Regards, -- MJR "My other machine is a mipsel."
