Right now its just subjective, but I'm working with a more experienced
programmer to create some hard number benchmarks, as well as learning to
debug assembler errors, which crop up a lot in getting the software to
compile in native 64 bit.

But csound was running super fast for me, so I know there's definitely a
boost there. I got the nvidia 3D card to work, so linux 3D games like
TuxRacer are a lot of fun, with full screen, 3D graphics.

I also found that the 64 bit laptop runs a lot cooler than my intel
laptop, not sure why that is, but the 64 bit chip seems to run a lot
cooler.
