I've been running 32bit Debian since release 0.93, before buzz was
released. I've been through a few PCs over these 20 years, and now my
latest one is dying on me (HP Dual core Pentium D, 4GB RAM).
I'd like to take a step up and get a machine with more memory (12 or
16GB). I've done some searching and it seems these days there are no
limitations with having access to all Debian packages, especially if one
uses the multi-arch feature.
Still, I'd like to ask on the list here. Are there any issues with
switching to amd64? What about drivers?
The new machine will likely be an off-the-shelf HP I7-4470 CPU machine
with an NVIDIA GeForce card, somewhere between a GT635 and a GTX660.
What about running 32 bit windows and apps in wine or VMWare?
Regards,
Rick
