    No more reason to hold out for x64 if you have even a 2GB system.

    [IThe performance advantage of 64-bit over 32-bit Ubuntu is clear. If you are still running the 32-bit version on 64-bit capable hardware you should really consider switching with the "Precise Pangolin" now that the 64-bit Flash is on par with the 32-bit version, OpenJDK works well on 64-bit, etc. The 32-bit situation should at least become a bit more interesting with Linux x32 support.][/I]
