You are absolutely correct. No one is going to put a 32 bit x86 system
into production. And no one is going to put an old 280R or V240

Use a kill-a-watt or a smart PDU to compare the power draw for these older
systems. Do you really want them in production? Solaris 10 isn't going away if
you do. q.v. several BS

FWIW, Mac OS X Lion will only support x64 as well. IMHO, this is a good move
for modern operating systems since there are always going to be alternatives

32-bit still makes sense for an appliance. Unless you're seriously
