  • 64 bit support?

    I'm going to be buying a new computer either today and tomorrow, and I wanted to know something for sure.   If the hardware you buy has 64 bit support, does it HAVE TO have a 64 bit os in it, or does it just support it. I'm curious because almost all the pieces of my new comp have 64 bit support, and i'm fine with 32, and really don't want ...
