</div>I run three systems now, all 64-bit. Especially with the recent<br>
release of adobe flash on 64 bit and wmapro audio codec support being<br>
commited shortly to libavcodec, there is little reason not to on a 64<br>
bit chip.<br>

<br>
</div>Yes.<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>

><br>
<br>
</div>Yes, and do.<br>

</div>Nope.<br>
