Not only that, but Intel's Atom processor (at least some versions) doesn't support 64-bit code, and when booted with EFI, runs in a 32-bit environment. This processor is pretty common in smaller systems.

Lisp programmers tend to seem very odd to outsiders, just like anyone else who has had a religious experience they can't quite explain to others.
