Games will be among the first end user applications that really need > =

4GB. Commercial games currently released sometimes need 2 GB, it is a =

32-bit systems.

However, here the point is more moot than anywhere else, who cares about a =

And needless, to say, FPC is very well prepared for 64-bit.
