[Qgis-user] osgeo4w 64 bit and updatings

Hi Andrea,

Both 32bit and 64bit versions are updated every night (unless there are
technical troubles).

I expect that for the long run there will only be a 64bit version. So I
would definitely go with the 64bit version if you have a Win64 machine.

For a couple years we will have two versions in parallel, but 64bit is
definitely the way to go from now on.

You can install both versions in parallel if you make sure that the
installation directory, the directory for the icons in the start menu
and the local package repository are in separate places

I don't see much reason to use the 32bit version though. It is in no way
better than the 64 bit version.
