Microsoft is phasing out 32-bit versions of Windows 10

You're not moving forward though!

I am on 64bit -- just not foolish enough for Win/10 ?

Except for memory, I never could tell much difference between the 2 bits. I get the security intrinsics of 64-bit, but when I would run either version of a program, I just couldn't tell the difference in performance. Maybe we were never meant to. I suppose though that all the new games made in 64-bit could not be made in 32-bit.

Yep the bigger advantage was memory, Skyrim vs Skyrim rerelease paint a perfect picture, of Skyrim fully modded can and often will crash because it runs out of memory because it fills it's 2gb address space windows allots to 32gb programs, while the rerelease has the ability to use as much memory as they system has.
