[ubuntu-uk] 64-bit vs 32-bit

[Scrase, Eddie]

I switched to 64-bit with 12.04, and have not noticed anything at all.

Hi
I'm thinking about upgrading to Xubuntu 12.10. It will be a fresh
install. So far I've always gone for the 32-bit version and had next to
no problems, either with the OS or applications. Conscious of the need
to keep up with the times, I'm considering 64-bit next time. Are there
any real advantages or would I be unlikely to notice any significant
difference?
