its just silly using more memory since dll is then needed to be both 32bit and
64bit, if it all was just 64bit you would save ram to be used to have less
swapfile on drive c

and then the computer would by this be much more fast with running programs

aslong users dont care microsoft will have to make 32bit works in 64bit os,
sadly the most stupid users loose anyway
