I see it helping out the Linux community in general by having a large
vendor on the community's side. e.g. on the discussion list a member
built a 64 bit box and was completely frustrated due to the lack of
64-bit flash support.
In the MS-Windows world, with XP x64, there is a 32-bit subsystem called
WOW64 (Windows-on-Windows 64-bit) that allows users to run programs
written for ordinary 32-bit Windows.
Is there nothing comparable in the Linux world?
The WOW64 approach doesn't always work though. A few programs fail to
install. I've also had a bunch of problems with drivers that did not work
on x64 (e.g., printer, sandisk reader).
