Re: 32 or 64 bit?

I have had nothing but success running Linux on a 64-bit Power Systems
server :-)

Currently I am running the 32 bit Ubuntu distro on my desktops and laptop
with the exception of my wife's laptop which is running 64bit Ubuntu. I am
looking to move to 64bit Ubuntu because I want to go to 8GB of memory so I
don't have to run so close to "full" on my memory when running VirtualBox.
I have been runnging Virtualbox with roughtly 700MB of space, but would like
to give it 2GB for the times in RDi where it uses a lot of memory.

Are others using 64bit Linux and having success running their different
applications? (i.e. I had issues initially running RPGNextGen on my wife's
laptop, though I don't remember if I resolved that).
