Hi,

I'm looking at getting myself a new machine and was wondering what the impact 
of getting a 64 bit processor was compared to getting a 32 bit, from a 
software compatibility standpoint.

Can I still run in 32 bit mode on a 64 bit cpu - ie. standard kernel compile, 
etc?
If going the 64 bit route, will I experience any compatibility issues with 
software applications?
Do the applications have to be written / modified to run under 64 bit mode?

Thx

Martin
