Can't say... you may be correct... but I see tons of questions in the FPD/FPW category here and I know that companies (especially smaller ones) do not like buying new PCs every 2-3 years. They see them much like calculators or telephones, which *should* last for years and years.

I also wonder, in these days of GHZ processors, just what visible improvements a user will see with 64 bit versus 32 bit. An "improvement of a few microseconds will mean nothing to a user.
