Sadly, it appears that at this point in time its
the only viable choice. But like I said, I don't
"need" amd64. I'm just curious if there is any
real evidence that its actually worthwhile. I've
never seen any comprehensive results; only
snippets of this and that. Nothing very
compelling.

And please don't write to me directly if you are
going to use an unreachable return address. Its
rude and annoying.
