I know there's a couple of OSes that have 32-bit versions, still. Debian 
will support 32-bit until 2025, at least.

You mentioned NFS - I'm inheriting a Linux farm that's running LDAP for 
auth, and it's a pain in the ass. I'm wondering what was so bad about 
NIS/NFS for networking, it seemed to just work out of the box, and in my 
relatively limited experience, rarely broke.
