So far, 64-bit FC5 for me has been incredible ! There are still
problems, such as Java (I am using Blackdown) not running stable 100% of
the time, and there is no 64-bit Flash plugin (you can still use the
32-bit Flash with 32-bit Mozilla/Firefox), but my FC5 box seems to be a
lot more responsive than my notebook, and all the server applications I
need run fine. I am now playing around with kickstart to see if I can
duplicate installs.

I had some help from Lonni on deciding on the motherboard. You remember
Lonni from the Caldera list, right?
