Microsoft has released figures that indicate nearly half of all Windows 7 installations are running on a 64-bit computing setup, states PC Mag.

According to Windows communications manager Brandon LeBlanc, 54% of worldwide systems run the 32-bit version of Windows 7 compared the 46% that opts for Windows 7 x64.

"The reason for the jump in transition to 64-bit PCs can be attributed to a few things," says LeBlanc. "The first is the price of memory has dropped over the last several years making it easier for OEMs to up the amount of memory in the PCs they ship.”
