Hi, I've been lamenting this for 3 years or more now, and spent tens
of hours trying to get it to work, but it just will have none. Soon
it will be impossible to buy a 32 bit OS. Not tomorrow, but maybe as
early as this time next year. None of the competition is making
strides toward 64 bit either as far as I know. Even NVDA is compiled
for 32 bit, though it should fly very nicely on a 64 bit os.
We might be switching platforms to get current spec very soon. I know
I love my 64 bit intel macbook, and I'm going to download another
ubuntoo image if there is an update to see if they fixed the bug in
the installer of the last one I got. I'm already advocating switch
from windows, although it's not for every one. We'll be forced into
it though if we don't get 64 bit access soon.
Best,
erik burggraaf

Has anyone else noticed that if you are looking for a new computer
from the big box stores that it is becoming difficult to find a
laptop or desktop that is not running a 64 bit operating system. I
have always been a Dell person but in todays world don't see the
benefit of building one from Dell since there support is no better
than that from HP which is mostly sold at the big box stores at
about 1/2 the price of the dell. Even the ready made Dells at
places like Best Buy are 64 bit operating systems. I have tried to
encourage Doug to get WE to run on a 64 bit system but it would seem
that this is not a priority item on the to do list.
