64 bit computer, 32 bit browser
I can only assume there are advantages with my really happenin' new Gateway with its 64 bit processor. I'm hoping I find out what they are someday. I keep getting popups from some robot in the works that wants me to add this or that Flash Player which, of course I can't because they don't have one that supports or is supported by, not sure which, a 64 bit system. I've come to like Explorer better than the other browsers, in spite of some initial prejudice against big, bad Microsoft. But I need to use Firefox whenever I want to watch video and most audio.
Maybe I'd be happier with another 32 bit browser, not sure, but I'm not crazy about Firefox. For some reason, I can't get the 'organize bookmarks' function to work. So my bookmarks are all just in a lonnnng column.
Also I have to change the screen magnification every new page. I entered "resize default" into the help box and got no help. The button that changes screen magnification is called "resize." Nobody thought to put in the simple function of having a default setting? What do these people do for a living?
