Do you really think it is better than PAE?
PAE is quite young as well, I think it was committed to the tree around March 2003. The earliest AMD64 commit I could find was May 2003 although repo copying makes it confusing.. I think you'll find the list of drivers incompatible with PAE to be much longer with amd64. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C
