How long until 32-bit is phased out completely now? :)

Whenever the 64bit processors go down in price and everything becomes compatable.

By the way, this is reletively old news :p

I doubt we'll ever see the end of 32-bit systems. At least, not till our generation dies of old age :)

Old news, Distant posted this like a month ago.
