Talking about that, what about the actual gains of using a MacBook2 with a native 64 bits environment, over the classical 32 bits system? Especially after reading wikipedia's "32 vs 64 bit" [1] and "pros & cons" [2] entries, it doesn't seem like a 64 bit userland brings any revolution to the desktop user. I'd be interested in hearing experiences, possibly by people who've tried both 32 and 64 bit distributions on their Code 2 Duo machine, noticed or measured differences. Thanks in advance!
