[QUOTE="SammySlim, post: 936787, member: 48298"] If in a virtual machine, I don't see the need for 64-bits. You will be allocating it a portion of your RAM. Unless you have very large amount of RAM (in excess of 8 GB), and are allocating your Linux machine over 4 GB, I'm not sure you'll be getting any benefit from it. Probably no harm done either, but no benefit. [/QUOTE]
