I'm the wrong person to reply to this post (lack of knowledge).:-[ For 
one do x86_64 systems use more RAM than i586? Never heard that one 
before. For another what about his claim the x86_64 can't use 32 bit 
libraries and repos? I think that is just wrong on both accounts. He 
sums up with this:

"But again, for home users, x86.64 brings NOTHING, and 32 keeps a 
lighter system for equivalent performance."
