Ubuntu linux comes to AMD 64. The new version is going to bring the power of linux from 32 bit computing to 64 bit computing. This is going to be an advancement as now people can do 64 bit computing on linux. Also, the new ubuntu linux comes with in-built software for multi purpose computing. It has it's own browser and most of all... a bittorrent client. Imagine running your torrents on a low demanding OS. I suppose your can run more torrents at the same time. =D It also includes cd burning softwares. It is a really nice system to use if you're not a gaming freak because the system is fast under a low demanding OS.

Also, it retains its old user interface. For you linux freaks you should really try this out. You can check more out here.
