i have a very old 64 bit cpu(semprom at 1600) and after running other windows 7 with a newer hardware(laptop with x2 at 2200) i discovered that 32 bit is still more than enough for me and usually is faster with more support for software and hardware

we discussed last year the pros and cons of run a 64 bit os and the pros are still very few(less than 5) compared to the pros of use a very mature 32 bit os

anyway i want to see how a pclinux 64 bit os runs in this old hardware i have here but not holding my breath for that   ;D
