   So far, the only hardware I've run into that slams into *that* wall was   
   some 32-bit POS from 200x ... it still "runs", but "mainstream distros"   
   are out.   
      
   Granted, I also have just enough awareness to realize that I can't   
   "demand" that someone else keep spending their time on 32bit support   
   just because I have an antique that I want to keep running.   
      
   All my 64-bit stuff from 2010/2012 onwards seems to not have any   
   troubles even with the newer distros, barring a few cases of "dammit   
   broadcom" that I fixed with some realtek USB dongle.
