all modern 64bit os's can run anything in 32bit mode, when you install things there will be a programs files (x86) folder, next to your regular programs files folder, if the installer does default to the x86 folder, then just tell it to install it to there instead (im using a x64 system and it defaulted to the x86 folder for me)

Hello, cheap laptops can give a mixed performance.
What are the specs of the new systems? 32 bit currently has a wider range of support from accessory designers of all products (ie even printers).
