Well, clearly MS disagrees. In fact, a week or so ago I reported a security bug that only affects IE7 (as far that I have tested) to ZDI. I will not reveal any more details until it is patched, of course.
AFAIK, I once tried 64-bit Win7 on my system with only 1.5GB of RAM, but decided to move back to 32-bit when I had to reinstall, and is what I am running right now.
Yea, it is unfortunate MS ended up screwing the move to protected mode so badly that it took 10 years after its release in 1985 before 32-bit programming became popular. While Intel waiting until 1988 to release the SX didn't help, look up the MS OS/2 2.0 fiasco (begin with "MS OS/2 2.0 SDK" and "Microsoft Munchkins") for some pretty horrible history.

This will help stop another Mickey Mouse-like copyright extension too. Hopefully copyright renewal will be bought up.

Still a bad idea IMO.
Not to mention the RF emissions would likely be able to used as a side channel to break crypto, which is much more common today than in the late 1970s.
