Only reason I can see to run 64bit is if you want to run more than 3GB of RAM.

Also, some programs are only 64bit, however there aren't very many of them, and your reason is the most common I think Dave.

only if you put in more RAM, if you stay with all the same Hardware (assuming you are bellow the 3GB RAM limit) you won't notice any change (if anything it will get worse) and some programs have compatability problems with 64bit versions of OS's however this is getting better as 64bit is becoming more widely used
