Re: 386 was out for many years before the 32-bit extensions really started to take hold. Yes, but buyers were paying a big premium for 32-bit processors for a half a decade before there were more than a few exotic 32-bit apps to run on them. And avoiding the old 16-bit processors like the plague. What would you do if you were presented with the choice of a 32-bit or 64-bit system if the 64-bit system cost $100 to $200 more? Even if you knew that there was little or no software that would take advantage of the 64-bit system? Assume that both systems perform about the same on 32-bit software and that both are made by the same company. (Both Compaq/Intel, for the sake of argument)
