Looks like Ubuntu will be joining Fedora and OpenSUSE in dropping support for 32-bit editions in future versions.

Given that 64-bit CPUs have been been dominant for more than a decade, I think this is pretty good news for us LiveCoders. As new distros drop support for older 32-bit CPUs eventually LC can follow suit, allowing a more streamlined development and build process for modern systems.

End of an era: Linux distributions will soon stop supporting 32-bit PCs
