the future they don't say....
Well, it's been available on Linux for about 12 years. As usual,
Microsoft is behind the times. I started running 64 bit Linux, when I
bought a new mom board in May 2006. In fact, when the AMD64 and Itanium
chips were first released, 64 bit Linux was already waiting for them..
But the situation with respect to drivers, etc could be better....

I haven't had any problems with drivers in OpenSUSE for any of the
versions (currently 10.3) I've used. The only thing that's a concern is
browser plugins. Most are 32 bit only, so I run 32 bit versions of
Seamonkey and Firefox. Also, as I understand it, Vista has a far
greater driver problem than Linux.
