I wasn't meaning it to come across as a knee jerk reaction - I was just curious
after thinking about who *uses* a 32bit image when a 64bit is available?
Especially for cloud where 64bit is supported everywhere someone might be
launching our image from.

The thing I thought about was perhaps there's some package people run on a
regular basis that was only available in 32bit - but then again, if it was a
commonly used package it's likely (if not for certain) there is a x86_64 version
of it in the repos already.

All that being said, I just figured I'd ask if we still need a 32bit AMI. I was
counting on everyone else having more background knowledge into this than I
have :)
