32 bit drivers are designed for 32 bit computers. 16 bit drivers are designed for 16 bit computers. Most modern computers are either 32 or 64 bit.
a bit is 1/8th of a byte
a bit is 1/8th of a byte
No, programs written for 32 bit computers and lower may need a virtual machine in order to work.

Not yet.
Intel invented the 32 and 64 bit microprocessor which are in all modern computers
Internet Explorer 64-bit is only for 64-bit computers.
All modern computers from Apple has a 64 bit CPU. Mac OS X is also a fully supported 64 bit Operative System.
Canada doesn't do much with computers, although Intel has some teams there and they do a bit of climate work on high-performance computers.
64 bit computers process data in larger chunks than 32 bit computers. This means a number of things, but the big 2 are: 1) When programs are written to support 64-bit processors, those programs will generally perform faster than on a 32-bit processor of the same speed. This is partially because 32-bit computers must handle 64-bit numbers in two steps, whereas 64-bit computers only need to use one step. 2) 64-bit processors can address more memory than 32-bit processors. This means your server can have more RAM, and therefore can store more data in memory, making memory-intensive programs like databases faster.
no. but it is electrisity so it does do a little bit of the global warming
