You are probably right,....eventually. However even though 64 bit machines have been the norm for a while now, there is no requirement to run a 64 bit OS on them. There is so little software that really takes advantage of 64 bit capabilities, that it is often not worth the loss of compatibility to run a 64 bit OS. Obviously that will eventually change, given enough time.
Here is a thread about running Calibre in a 32 bit VM on a 64 bit machine.
