The problems I had running 64 bit linux:
You're a few years behind.
1. Sun's Java plugin is 64-bit now, but it doesn't matter. Red Hat's
OpenJDK had a 64-bit plugin first and it works 99.9% the same. I believe
it was certified by Sun.
3. Webex runs on my 64-bit server.
4. What? Flash? That's 64-bit. (first on Linux, too)
5. Android is not arch dependent. Where'd you get that notion?
6. Skype plans on a 64-bit binary release, but it is going open source
anyway.
There is no reason to run only 32-bit kernel/apps/libs on a 64-bit CPU.
Even if you only have 256 megs of RAM.
The Juniper VPN will hang firefox and sometimes the whole system if
firefox uses the openjdk plugin. That said its a crappy vpn anyway...
Your other comments are appreciated. My next laptop will have 8G :)
