It's no secret that 64-bit computing is becoming more and more mainstream, and OEM's and system builders are increasing the capabilities of their products by including more system memory (RAM), faster processors, and larger hard drives. Most 64-bit processors on the market today (like the AMD AthlonTM 64 series and the Intel CoreTM 2 products) can run 32-bit code blazingly fast, and as such, you will find that most system builders are still shipping 32-bit Windows operating systems by default.
