(Get the code!)
For the past couple of years I always installed the 64bit version. Works very well. There was some initial problems with Flash (and also Java) but I think that was corrected. But yes, there's some apps (mostly closed sourced) that do not work well in 64bits and it's a bit hard to fix the problem.
So I do not agree with the "64-bit - Not recommended for daily desktop usage" message but could be more like: "64-bit - Recommended for computers that support it (warning: some applications still run in 32bit mode)" (or something like this).
