By communicating that 64-bit is for: | - powerusers who like to look for a little trouble | - free software zealots (as almost all the problems are related to non-free | software) | - servers Have you read your post yourself? | All users of the "it should just work"-kind should just use 32-bit. I even | think the dual arch DVD9 should default to 32-bit installation on 64-bit | hardware - so we don't have n00bs running 64-bit without even knowing it, and | wondering why they can't get their homebank to work with Firefox. This is the most stupid reason i ever heard... | | There's a reason why people don't get 64-bit MS Windows with their boxes. | Dunno why they must insist on running 64-bit openSUSE, when running 32-bit MS | Windows doesn't seem to bother them any. I realy cannot see what on earth this has got to do with it.... Windows never succeeded to create a wellworking 64bit version.. Linux has, besides the nonsens you write there is the ice tea java 1.7, which works allright enough.. - -- Have a nice day, M9.
