you don't want a 64-bit system, then why did you pay for it?

Very few people pay for 64bit and most of those who pay are the same
who used to pay for GHz rather than for performance (read: Pentium 4).

The 64-bit vs 32-bit argument is multi-faceted. It gets much deeper than
just addressing more than 3GB of RAM:

Nope, no difference on the bus. Most accesses will be
cache-line-sized anyway at that level.
You're kidding, right?
Not at all.

If you have other i386 machines around, it may be convenient for you to

I can witness exactly what you've written after migrating to 64bit kernel
and os. It's faster and safer on the same machine with 2GB RAM.
What would it be the recommended architecture/versioin to choose for
download an install?
I'd go with an i386 install unless you have more than 3GB of RAM, in
which case I'd go with an amd64 install (or an i386 with a 686-bigmem
kernel).

I would like to test Debian on a new PC.

Could Intel IA-64 work right?

http://hulu.com is an example. AFAIK its only available to people with
U.S. IPs.
I'm in europe and it's working fine, though it said that it can not show
video because of 64bit limitation on linux.

provide a 64-bit version for their browser, only 32-bit binaries). Once
