Hi guys, I am trying to get up and running with Armory and an offline wallet. Im stuck at a couple of questions though:

1 Is the new version of Armory that was just released, 0.96, only available for AMD chipsets running Linux? No intel chipset version for Linux? Whats up with that?
The amd64 in the name is the Linux way of saying x86_64, i.e. a 64-bit Intel or AMD chip.  It works fine on Intel.

2 Can I run a windows listening only wallet and a Linux offline wallet easily and without serious issues? Any known issues?

No problem at all.  This is a common setup.

3 Would it be possible to run different version of Armory on my listeneing and offline wallets? I have an old 32 bit intel chipset laptop I want to use for the offline and a 64bit wondows for the listening wallet. Does that make sense or is it possible?
If the versions are not too different, then it works.  At some point the communication was changed, but I cannot remember at what version.  I think it was between 0.92 and 093, but I am not sure.  Also, the new 0.96 introduce new kinds of scripts disabled per default, but if you enable them you need a 0.96 signer as well.
