Re: [Trisquel-users] Final release unofficially available

I think the last 32-bit CPU was sold in 2006. If you figure most people will  
replace there system within six years that means 32-bit systems should be  
disappearing. That seems to be happening from what I'm seeing in the market.  
Even the older systems now support the 64-bit GNU/Linux discs. There are  
fewer and fewer 32-bit users out there. It won't be much longer until there  
are near zero 32-bit systems left. I give it another year or two. By the time  
Trisquel 8 comes around 32-bit will be irrelevant. Right now you need 2GB and  
I figure you'll need 4GB by the time 8 comes around. A 32-bit OS simply won't  
handle it and the majority who are on MS Windows users will have long since  
moved on.
