Okay.

But why was I confused, as read on net (google) that when invoked the
command:

myfamily at myfamily-desktop:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo

The output has one of the lines as follows:

'model name    : Intel(R) Pentium(R)  CPU       E5200  @ 2.50GHz'

and it was written that E5200 was 64 bit, but as confirmed by the command
('i686'), now its 32 bit.
