erm, not quite. home premium and business were also available as x64 (there's x64 media request instructions in the retail package), and (as stated above) there were plenty of oem boxes which shipped with the x64 version of either of those.

also, you don't get "both for one price" in 7... even though media for both x86 and x86 is in the box, you still only get one product key.

There's no reason to move beyond 64bits because it supports up to 78GB of ram.

32-bits supports 4GB, and each extra bit doubles the value. 64-bits would be 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 bytes, or about 18,446,744,073GB.
