I'm building for ARM here...we'll see how it goes.  My philosophy is to 
try to stick as close to "stock" as possible and only add stuff as needed.

I was using Ubuntu 10.04 i386 before, but the new box is a quad i7 with 
8GB RAM [yay!] and I don't like Ubuntu's new window manager so thought 
I'd try Mint. I need the x86_64 to support the RAM.  That much RAM is 
weird to me; I'm still running boxes that have less hard disk than that. :)
