Hercules: will you be installing the i386 version (32 bit) or the AMD64
version?

I'm thinking of trying the 64-bit version because the Core 2 Duo will
support it.  There are some issues with codecs and Flash, apparently,
but most of these are addressed in the Ubuntu forums.

I researched a little bit what advantages 64-bit will have.  Apparently
on some applications like video rendering it leads to a dramatic (30%?)
speed increase.  I'm not sure if the same is true with audio
compression.  I'm also not sure if I can take advantages of 64-bit with
my memory constraints - 512 MB for the moment, a maximum of 2 GB on the
motherboard I'm looking at.
