Maybe because that's what we have on our machines out of the box.

It's becoming a bit more difficult to find pre-fab machines running 32-bit Windows these days (or if you find them, they're either machines you don't want because they're older, or they're more expensive because they're not the volume models anymore).

Hm...some info I've seen out there suggests that OEM Windows 7 keys can work for either x86 or x64 versions so that might be worth a try if I can't get BTV working on my Win7 x64 machine.
