If 30 users need 64-bit, then all 5,000 (or whatever) users at company get 64-bit so that a single image can be used.

Really, the company just throws out all existing 32b hardware, and upgrades everyone to new equipment because less than 1% need 64b?

Sounds unlikely.

Doug asked about low-end users. I think even he would have to admit that 64-bit Vista compatability is very important for high end users at the end of 2006.

You are talking reality. This is a truthiness issue.
