I would like a fix to Get Info. Whenever I get info for the first time on anything, it hangs for a VERY long time before opening. Happens after each reboot or logout.

Someone should check to see if any more machines gained the ability to boot in 64-bit mode. Though I doubt that's happening.

I think the theory about the different download size does have to do with patches to 64-bit mode.
