I remember how, when you started the game, there'd be a voice that said, "Double Dribble" as only 32-bit program could. Hilarious.

This is quite interesting, but to those of you looking for a TV, I highly suggest you look at something other than plasma.

In the video, they say that plasma tvs display 1 million colors. This is nothing. 32 bit color (the highest available, which has been standard for years on computer monitors and should be on HDTVS, and is different from say 64 bit processing ala the N64) is 24 million colors.

Get an HDTV.

I don't know... I've been using Vista x64 Ultimate for a while now and I find it to be rock solid stable and perfectly fast on my hardware. I tried messing with Ubuntu on another partition at one point, but the 64-bit version would crash when loading the kernel so I couldn't even install it. The 32-bit version installed, but it was just so visually ugly, I couldn't get Compiz to work properly, and I absolutely hated going back to needing a command line interface for so many things despite having grown up hacking DOS to my will (sudo fuckyou! ). It's like going back 10 years when there are perfectly good modern solutions.

The problem I see with Linux is that it's very stable and secure, but you have to be a supergeek to use it so the people who know nothing about PCs(and need that security BADLY as they just love to fuck up their Windows set-ups and never know how they did it when you ask) just can't function properly. You can be far more productive on Windows than on Linux, imo. However if you're dead set on it, try the Linux Mint distro. It's based on Ubuntu(or Debian depending on how you look at it), but is far more usable right out of the box as it includes more software, codecs, and has a nicer visual look than Ubuntu (whoever told them brown is good should get a kick in the ass).

Best part about the "64-bit" Jaguar was the 2 32-bit processors it was using, coupled with their slogan of "Do the math". Oh the irony.
