Hi all!
Today I took a big step and ordered an AMD 3400+…2 gig ram 
To make so that I got the price under the credit card limit I had to switch from windows XP pro to the home edition…
I was thinking about upgrading to pro later on , and surfing the net I saw this advertisement 
http://www.amd.com/sg-en/0,00.html
What Luck!!! I am sooooooo glad my friends credit card limit was low I saved 160$
Plus now I get the 64 Bit version for FREE!!
I thought I would have to use Linux to utilize some of the new features…
Looks like windows is already there
EDIT:
Everyone is on the 64-bit bandwagon… A company I have known for years NOVEL, has just released a 64bit version of SUSE Linux for free also
