Lightroom really benefits from having over 2gb available to it in RAM. If you are on a 32-bit OS you are restricted to less than 4gb. Windows 7 eats up 1-2gb on a good day, so you do the math. Its also really slow on older processors. I don't know about you, but when I have to export a few hundred

For a lot of people, this isn't just a matter of upgrading the OS to a 64-bit OS. It is a more fundamental matter of only having a 32-bit processor on the motherboard. You can't run a 64-bit OS on 32-bit hardware. So Windows 7 was available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions to cover both audiences.
