I miss many 32bit aps and am considering whether I need to set up another box for them.
You know that you can have both 32-bit and 64-bit applications installed on the same machine with Linux, right? :) 32-bit to 64-bit mapping must be enabled in the kernel, and you must have the 32-bit versions of libraries like glibc (I've seen systems that had /lib and /lib64), but as long as this is the case you can do it. At least, I know for a fact it's been done with Gentoo. I'm sure with a bit of custom compiling you can do it on FC4 too. No need for an extra box, and if you're using AMD64 (which I'm guessing is the case) you get an increase in performance for 32-bit applications vs. being on a 32-bit CPU :)
