I think that most of the posters here probably have 64 bit machines (or at least access to one), but very few of them will have a 64 bit OS. Any of the AMD 64 bit CPUs or the INTEL EMT CPUs or the Mac or even those Xbox machines are using 64 bit CPUs. But not many run 64 bit Windows or even SUSE Linux 64, etc.
