Which leaves the OP with the three choices already posted

Yep - that's about it.

There was a post I saw somewhere in the last couple of weeks where someone claimed to have googled up a 64-bit PPM repo - one that I hadn't heard of. I can't remember where I saw that post, and I now can't find it. I don't know whether the person was talking about a 5.8 rep and I don't even know that the claim was accurate - but if lintunen has good google-foo, then it might be worth trying to google up "64 bit PPM" repos, and see if that leads anywhere.

Cheers,
Rob

    I've looked several times for additional x64 repos and never found any. Doesn't mean there isn't one somewhere of course, but given most non-AS repos only do modules that AS don't have, taking on building a 5.8 x64 repo would be a massive task.
