#1 Re: java plugin on amd64: happy 5th anniversary! Posted by ajt (204.193.xx.xx) on Wed 27 Feb 2008 at 13:00 Admitting that 64-bit Linux exists and that enough people use it to warrant a browser plug-in is a bit of a publicity problem for Sun. Pretty much all AMD and Intel chips available for the past year or so are 64-bit. Debian has had a full stable distribution since Sarge, and most popular distros have an AMD64 version and like Debian have had one for some time. I'd even bet that amongst serious Linux users 64-bit is in the majority. I don't know what the split is over all Linux users, but even there I'd bet that a higher percentage of Linux users are running 64-bit than Windows users. Come on Sun, get your finger out and put your money where you mouth is! -- "It's Not Magic, It's Work" Adam
