Hi David, Several users have reported success forcing the installation of the 32 bit package on 64 bit systems. There's some information about that here:
http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=337826#p337826 Scratch runs on a Squeak virtual machine. It should be possible to install the 64 bit Squeak VM and change the Scratch startup script so as to use it instead of the 32 bit vm we include with the package. That thread has more info about this as well. Let us know how it goes - we haven't heard of LTSP based configurations with Scratch. Scratch On!
