Why do you need 64bits mode? 95% of real Macs run Snow Leopard in 32bits mode with Apps running in both 64 and 32 bits mode..

 

There is no real gain for a regular user to use 64bits mode for Kernel and Extensions (kexts). Chances are you will find more incompatibilities in the long run and will not see a real benefit.

 

What's important in Snow Leopard is that apps run in 64bits mode, and that happens in both 64bits and 32bits mode. 64bits mode for Kernel and Extensions should be left for servers.

Snow Leopard in 64 bit mode (with Kernel and Extensions) is slightly faster and more responsive.

 

Even for the most regular user (I think you are not an idiot ;) ), you might want to exploit the 100% of your hardware resources. It don't care if I want to use a dual quad core only to play Solitaire or to host a Tomcat application in 64 bits
