32 bit is more prevalent.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] New shack computer?

Hello all,

I'm going to be buying a new desktop computer for the hamshack.  In my
research, I'm pretty much decided in favor of Windows7 over Windows8.

In Windows 7 should I get 32 bit OS or 64 bit?  Typical software in use will
be N1MM, Logger32, WinKey, etc.  I don't do digital modes.

4GB RAM
I may add a RS232 serial card down the road.
Dual monitors

Looking for a sanity check more than anything.
