well win 7 sarter is a 32 bit, if you are using a netbook.  the  
netbooks I've seen mmostly run 32 bit but that's not to say by now  
that 64 bit ones could start hitting.  if your machine says x86 based  
pc, then that indicates that you are running the triditional 32 bit  
system.  if you are running a 64 bit, as said in a past email, it will  
show the system as x64.  just thought I'd indicate that.
