Do you know of one 32-bit executable that is 4 GB in size? Just one? OK, 
how about 3 GB? No. What about 2 GB or 1 GB? Oh so it's not really 
relevant. Well have you considered the following: "Anyway I think I'm 
done with this topic"? I didn't think so.

Ask people why they have deer heads on their walls and they tell you 
it's because they're such beautiful animals.I think my wife is 
beautiful, but I only have photographs of her on the wall.
