TBH this is a lie though, we do support 686 systems, why not just say
"400Mhz Intel-compatible system or better", that the default download is
64-bit is spelled out pretty clearly on stg.fedoraproject.org.

We shouldn't pretend we can't support 32 bit when we very much can.

Also, I heard we now require less than 768MB of ram for install, but if we do recommended, it should be 1GB.
