Debian aims to be a universal operating system, but this is to some
point contradictory with the pace of computer architecture innovation,

Your 32 bit PAE Sid kernel can address 64GB. Since your new machine

There are many reasons. One is priming the pump. At some point in the

There are two such limitations when using a PAE kernel and 32bit user
space on x86-64, which are the same limitations on P6 class
in which there is no loser but
everything is fun and worthwhile!

Honestly, there's not really any major issue with Flash on 64-bit unless
you use nspluginwrapper. Use native 64-bit flash.
Debian's multilib is a lot better, so the only issue is maybe in support
for software only available in 32-bit.
