I shall install the Windows Vista on one hard disk and want to instal Linux on the other one.

What I want to know is does Linux have 64bit? and can anyone see any problems with the above items. I know some of you will advise Windows XP but as that is going to be phased out I went for Vista.

of course there are 64bit versions of Linux....
best way is still Ubuntu (many versions, best for me OpenGeu)
