You can install the same OS twice on the hard drive, using
the same key. You could install an x86 version for your
legacy software collection, and an x64 version for when
you want to use the maximum amount of RAM. I haven't tested
dual boot of different bitness, for boot loader issues.

You could also use separate drives, one for each.


How esy is it to get, say, a laptop, with a 32-bit OS?

Mine came with a set of DVDs with the 32-bit version, but that was 8
years ago -- does that still happen today?
