For workstations/desktops I still gravitate to 32bit because a few apps 
occasionally run into issues with 64bit or sometimes not available at 
all.. It seems (to me anyhow) to to be a tier 2 platform for some of the 
desktop app maintainers. PAE works for me, I I dont plan to have a 
single application address that much memory. I have not seen a 
performance hit thus far. For servers I deploy on 64bit because (in 
general) those apps seem to be on the radar.

I generally try to "run with the pack" so I am not going to be a fringe 
case...

Just my two cents...
