Just curious, why wouldn't there ever be a 64-bit version of GEM?  I've been thinking that a 64-bit build of Pd-extended would be nice to have, especially because using 64-bit floats as Pd's native format would make it much more flexible.  You could represent UNIX timestamps properly, for example.

I have at least 4 MacPros running GEM here right now.  Assuming you want to run OSX there aren't that many problems related to the Intel chips beyond the general decrease in performance over the previous G5/PPC 970. 

There is no 64bit version of GEM for OSX and there never will be one.
