Hopefully we are all working on 64 bit dates, right? right? </Padme mode> :^)
A surprising number of embedded devices (you know, the ones controlling machinery in factories and stuff) are still running 32-bit processors.
But you can still do 64 bit math on a 32 bit processor, if you have a carry/borrow flag.
What, and miss out on all the overtime pay from fixing everything at the last minute?
