@Hang Tuah: What do I need to know about the wonders of having a UNIX workstation?
I'm not sure how to answer that question right here since it covers such a broad area. You might be better off reading a book on Unix and/or 64-bit software to get a foundation on the basic ideas.
The main point I was alluding to, though, is that "64-bit Unix workstation" was for a long time the last thing you'd expect a consumer to have. They were traditionally the realm of science, government and academic research.
