There has been some discussion on this list as to what determines if you

Now the only 64 is in the clflush size thing and I did a long search
with Google on what is clflush and got only that every cpu I looked at
has clflush size as 64.
Anyone here actually know how to determine a 64 byte cpu?
I thought not :-)

My Intel Celerium chip does not give up it's 32 or 64 bit capability
so I did a Google search and did it on the Intel web page. Then I wanted
to see if my new AMD chip is 32 or 64 bit.
I am happy to say that most recent cpu's ALL are 64 bit or 32 bit
capable. Both of my cpu's are 64 bit capable. So I may reinstall F7 on
my new computer using 64 bit software knowing it does have a cpu that
will support it.
