I totally agree.

In case Ubuntu 10.04 is not suitable for everyday use, then do not
provide it.

This is seriously harming the distribution's reputation. All new
notebooks/PCs have 64-bit CPUs and > 3 GiB RAM, and the first OS people
look, either Windows or Linux, is the 64-bit version.

I really wonder why a solution hasn't been provided for this. The longer
the situation remains, the worse for Ubuntu Linux.

Fix it ASAP!
