Description
One thing less to worry about. The OS should just run 64-bit and 32-bit apps happily alongside each other, with only those apps being 64-bit that really profit from it.

That's how 64bit ubuntu works. You can install ia32libs, and there you go.

Actually its different, because OSX can still install on 32bit computers, 64bit ubuntu cannot
I agree with the idea, but this feels somewhat as a dupe of my idea: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/1308/

Yup a hybrid 32/64 would be great. This is dupe though.
