I use an x86-32 system myself. So do many other people. Besides, it's not really your call to decide if x86-32 is obsolete. If it's anyone's call, it's for companies like AMD and Intel that actually make the chips. Microsoft doesn't make x86 chips, so their opinion on x86-32's viability is none of our concern. Similiarly, if I were a marketing director for pepsi, I wouldn't listen to anything that Coca cola has to say about what flavors of soda to make. A problem with the liquid CO2 company I buy my fizz from however WOULD get my attention. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
