i gave this code:
$ if cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep " lm " &> /dev/null; then echo "Got
64bit" ; fi

and i get this reply back:
"Got 64bit"

so i my pc is capable of 64 bit.
now is it ok if i download this torrent?:
ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent

my doubt is, my pc is intel while the link talks about amd....

any suggestion would be greatly appreciable.

thanks a lot.

The iso works for both AMD and Intel. AMD introduced the 64 bit
extension and Intel later adopted the extension for their CPUs.
