You'll get True for 64-bit, False for 32-bit.

Zach, I did check and it looks like the Python(x,y) 64 distribution I downloaded uses a 32 bit Python. The question is if there is ANY Python(x,y) 64 distribution that uses the 64 bit python version. I looked it up online and could not find anything related to this issue -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
