Anyone here running their computer on 64-bit, or are they okay staying with the default of 32-bit? Will Lion keep the whole idea of having the default at 32-bit?

I meant the actual computer. By default, last I read, only a few computers use the 64-bit kernel.

A computer is simply several pieces of hardware working together to present an operating system. if you are referring to OSX as the computer then most computers with 10.6 run the 64bit kernel by default. They only run 32bit if the processor doesn't support it or the user forces it into 32bit. In 10.7 so far it doesn't look like 32bit is supported anymore which is why they are phasing out support for some old processors.

Maybe I am mixing terms up. My computer is not "old", but it isn't the latest one either. I was referring to this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3770.
