Good point.

It looks like it might be 64 bit according to HP's website, but I'm not
positive.

I can't say, I'm no expert on that.

Can I just install a 64 bit kernel and try that or do I need
to do a reinstall?

Reinstall, definitely, because libraries change, and programs. But the install DVD should tell you if you don't have a 64 bit cpu. Actually, the 32 bits should inform you if you have a 64 kernel to make sure you want to install 32 bit software (it has some advantages). But I don't know if it does.

I don't think your system would be that noticeable slow only for using the 32 bit version instead of 64. The difference is subtle, except for certain heavy load apps.
