Hey, it won't hurt to have one.
But no problem, I understand FG's stand perfectly.

true, it won't hurt to have one, indeed! also FG has the choice of making or not.

Having a 64 bit binary of Amnesia would be perfect. Esp. since at least one Linux distribution requires you to set up a 32 bit chroot to get 32 bit apps running under x64 (archlinux). I agree an the purpose of using a 64 bit version but esp. on Linux most people I know are running a 64 bit distrib when have a 64 bit CPU. For me 64 bit makes perfect sense for using KVM and LOTS of RAM on a server (virtualisation) but this is of course uninteresting for Amnesia.
