i didn't say sse3. i said ssse3. they are not the same thing.

an you believe you are going to be able to use things like 64bit quicktime ?

It means that the kernel will work in 32-bit. You don’t get pure 64-bit mode , as in your hardware drivers would be in 32-bit. However programs would take advantage of 64-bit mode and run natively in 64-bit if its capable of doing so. However be warned that 64-bit support is bit flaky due to the fact that these older processors lack SSSE3. For AMD systems , you’ll notice that some programs will crash with 64-bit.
personally, 32bit works fine on my amd processor, and I don't have enough memory to make 64bit truly worthwhile. yet if I was paying for my system now, getting everything possible would be my personal priority.
