yeah, im aware of that, my laptop CPU also cant handle 64bit.... im not saying that it will be permanent now...64bit OS commonly still have bugs compare to 32bit OS... but it's a fact that it is mainstream now....with RAM's getting more cheaper, even the low end cheap Atom processor support Intel-64..no doubt 64bit is mainstream nowadays... but still, i myself havent use any 64bit OS ever...im still concern about compatibility and resource usage...
