32 bit Windows specific

Latest comment: 3 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

If the Microsoft Windows discussed is specific to 32 bit, then it would be more clearer to put them in the header. As many people who reads the page for quick reference may miss this detail.

PAE is a processor feature. Information about support in specific OSs (Windows or otherwise) therefore does not belong in the article header. The processor feature would exist even if no OSs supported it. Jeh (talk) 17:59, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

A hardware topic mentioning software doesn't seem at all out of place to me. Other hardware topics do mention in the lead, even first sentence, so precedent would say it's OK. Widefox; talk 22:03, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
