The key difference being that within 6 months of x86-64's release, it will have at least an order of magnitude more users than ppc, so development should go on at a faster pace. Also, there should be fewer issues, as whatever doesn't build for x86-64 can simply be compiled for IA-32 as a workaround. -- Levi Ramsey [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Love lies in pools of questions.
