I agree, 64 bits does have its drawbacks.
Apple has dropped all 32 bit support, Ubuntu is preparing to. I wonder when
Windows will drop it like they did 16 bit support - they'll probably be the last
to do so, as they value legacy compatibility more than anyone else.
But it's coming. We should be investing in the future with our limited
resources.
