I am currently using a 9.1-RELEASE with an i386 install. The hardware is a core 2 duo with 2 GB of RAM. My video card is an ati radeon hd 2400 xt. Things work fine. Would I gain anything by starting over and doing an AMD64 install or would that be a bad idea? Would my system perform better, worse, or the same after the change? I may eventually bring the memory up to 4GB, but not anytime soon. I understand some ports my not work - like WINE - but I do not use WINE. Would there be other problems? -- Michael Gass mgass@csbsju.edu
