I believe most current i586 openSUSE users do not use this architecture out of necessity.
I have 15 machines with one or more TW installations and 32 bit CPUs. ... I have 11 machines with one or more TW installations and 64 bit CPUs. ... How do these, and I, fit into your definition of "necessity"?
How do you or your 26 machines fit into your definition of "most"? :-)
Hard to say. I test things that don't and/or can't get tested via virtualization, very roughly half the time in order to provide answers to people asking for help with hardware-specific problems. Certainly taking 15 machines out of current openSUSE version use will significantly reduce my means to do what I have been doing. Most non-programmer users aren't also active testers finding and filing bugs against pre-release software, and following up instead of filing and never heard from again. Do I count as "a" user? 26? More (e.g. one per installation)? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
