      I had the choice when buying a new PC to go with single threaded 64-bit or multiple cores. Particularly for gaming, I figured a single core was all I really needed, and 64-bit was the future.

      The correct choice at the time was multiple cores. Everything going to 64-bit wasn’t going to happen until that computer was long dead.
