Just as a general note, alot of software isn't available in the 64-bit flavor yet (flash player, for example) so it is generally recommended that "newbies" install 32 bit Linux.
Actually it isn't
lots of software... it's some here and there. And flashplayer 32-bit works if you run a 32-bit browser. I'm running Debian on a 64-bit system now and it works fine.
That's my experience, anyways.
