There are cpus that are 64 bit (with the lm flag) but don't have hardware 
virtualization (vt).   Not sure if they can run ESXi or not, but with 
server/player they can run 32-bit guests only.  CPUs with the vt option (and in 
some cases this can be enabled/disabled in the bios) can run 64-bit guests under 
vmware server/player even if the host runs a 32-bit OS.
