Just (this week) moved from 32 (old machine that dies) to 64 Ubuntu. Not
one single glitch due to 64bit. That may have been pure luck, but I've
got quite a lot of stuff installed.
I went from 32bit to 64bit on a laptop last year and the speed
differential was very obvious when booting. It's hard to tell about the
speed of apps when you are doing email though :)

Those of you who are running 64 bit versions of Ubuntu . . are there any
pitfalls? Any problems with applications? Speed?
