Re: amd64 running on Intel Celeron and Pentium? (was: [SECURITY] [DSA 5113-1] firefox-esr security update)

I have a beloved P4 Gericom Frontman and I do not want to give it away. 
It had a new game changing design as can today be found with many Apple 
computers. I also have a P4 notebook and some i386 desktops, some of 
which I am dual booting with some Windows and OS/2. New computers with a 
setup from zero are no considerable option for me. But yes, why not 
upgrade to Debian 11.
