Here's where we get off the beaten track: the man's asking if Drupal will
run on Ubuntu 64, yes or no; a legitimate question; obviously the answer is
yes.

What you have to do as sys admin in any server in a production environment
is another question, and it is no harder or easier in ubuntu 64 bit than any
other.
