While I wouldn't mind switching to       64-bit mode, that would probably break a lot of the programs I use, not to       mention I'd have to get matching drivers for my printer. Maybe I could fake       the whole thing. After all, that's what Vbox is for. I almost forgot to       mention that I burned 18.10 LTS last afternoon.               PQ> FYI.
