I don't think 32-bit architecture will be going away permanently until 
the hardware and device manufacturers cease to build them. Until that 
time I think it's feasible to continue to support 32-bit along with 
64-bit. It just makes sense in a way, since not everyone is in 
possession of a 64-bit machine whether desktop or laptop. I myself only 
have 2 64-bit devices, but my main machine is STILL the Gateway Intel 
Pentium Duo-Core T6321 laptop!....and it's survived going from F15 thru 
to F21 with no problems!...
