Switching to 64 bit is the simple solution but it would also prevent us from using 32 bit Raspberry Pi and other similar devices that are on 32 bit processors...

 Hi all,
According to [1], Apple has started to alert users when they open a 32-bit app on the Mac and I've seen such a dialog today myself when opening a 32-bit Squeak image.
It looks like it is time to make 64-bit the default, maybe with the next release? The Pharo community is already doing that for quite some time, so I'm wondering if there is any reason not to do the same?
Best,Fabio
