Sorry about that, the specific processor in question is the Pentium D 930 which
supports 64 bit computing through the Extended Memory 64 Technology. It was my
initial reaction to say I'd go with 32 bit computing because my general
experience with 64-bit is Windows, Linux, and some FreeBSD. Generally speaking
(this is a broad statement) 64 bit is not mature enough for me to consider
building a server that safegaurds my data when taking into account everything
has to be in alignment- hardware, OS, drivers, applications,etc. It seems
there's always some hidden gremlin to be discovered. That said, I know
Solaris has a rich history of 64 bit computing and I'm certainly willing to
look into it.
