Hey.

Im backing up files for my format now, and im wondering if i should go to the 64bit edition.

Is it stable for:

Office work (Homework, coursework, general school stuff, im 14 is so its importing starting GSCE);
Web browsing (Videos, Flash, etc too)
Small time gaming.

Im not sure, I went from FC5 to FC5x64 and it was VERY unstable at the time. Hows ubuntu 64 compared to standard x86?

Is it worth it?

I dont think you will have any problems either. 64bit Ubuntu is very stable. You can use my howto/scripts to setup Firefox with plugins. Look in my signature.
