I think we need to go back to simpler days, no one should ever need more than 640kb of ram

There are a few oddballs out there STILL using Windows 95. Or even older stuff. So I don't think 32-bit is going to die anytime soon. But I have to observe that Windows was years behind the curve when it came to releasing a 64-bit OS. One that worked, anyway.

I remember booting Windows NT on Alpha in 1996-1997 time frame, and I can tell you, I never saw Windows NT boot so fast... I barely got to see the "blue screen" with the "...." during boot up. It's really only in the Intel x86 world that was so far behind doing 32bit stuff for so long. If it wasn't for AMD64, Intel would never have gone 64bit for the consumer end (Intel was going 64bit with Itanium on the business end in partnership with HP).
