Good idea.  I will try both of them to get a feel for the components.
I am planning to do things slower than I normally do so I don't screw
up too bad.  This is my first 64 bit so I am anticipating a learning
curve even though 64 bit has been out for a long time and should be
very stable.  I want to get off to a good start on the new machine
because I plan to be friends for a long time.
