- I find very few apps arent 32bit friendly, in fact the only app i
- use every once and a while that doesnt like 32bit is system 6 :)
- If im not mistaken though, some apps actually run better in 32 bit
- mode than in 24... (better= faster) as for apple requiring 32bit
- clean for compatiblity, they already have, and in the future
- i was under the impression that machine will only be able to run
- in 32bit mode.
