I'm disappointed that the article no where mentions that people running 32 bit windows for whatever reasons they need to couldn't upgrade to 32 bit Linux.

Yes but there is still a retro scene using original hardware. It's nice to have full internet capabilities.

i was wondering who would still be doing this and your comment reminded me of those youtube videos where people get macos 7 and windows 3 online.

Desktop 32 bit is dead pretty much already. The applications are in the IoT and sever space.
