I'm considering buying an AMD64 computer.
Does anyone have any
comments on using Linux audio apps on the AMD64? I would want to use
JACK, MusE, ams, and lots more.
Very nice machine.
If you have less than 3GB of real memory, you might as well run it in
32-bit mode (i386). There should be no problems.
