Though I have been using x32 bit for a good while....I have decided to try Leopard Glass....and was wondering if it is safe to keep it?
I realize from the System Information that it said x86.....

thats the same as a 32bit OS
x86=32bit
x64=64bits
its funny i know lol
Oh zeen.....yu serious? lol....thought they would be different.....like x32, x64 and x86.
I guess I can keep it then.
Was viewing the OS and decided to check on System Preference...notice it says System Performance rating : high...kind of puzzled me a bit....are you sure it is safe?
It is also saying OS type is 32 bit.

X86 is a label indicating it runs on the 8086 CPU type.
80286,80386,80486,80586 (Pentium (5)) :Intel
586,686 : Cyrix
K5,K6,K7,K8,K10: AMD
--- wikiThe generic term x86 refers to the instruction set of the most commercially successful CPU architecture[1] in the history of personal computing. It is used in processors from Intel, AMD, VIA, and others, and derived from the model numbers of the first few generations of processors, backward compatible with Intel's original 16-bit 8086 CPU, most of which were ending in 86.[2] Since then, many additions and extensions have been added to the x86 instruction set, almost consistently with full backwards compatibility.
As the x86 term became common after the introduction of the 80386, it usually implies a binary compatibility with the 32-bit instruction set of the 80386. This may sometimes be emphasized as x86-32 to distinguish it either from the original 16-bit x86-16 or from the newer 64-bit x86-64 (also called x64).[3]
Modern x86-hardware usually has 64-bit capabilities, at least in personal computers and servers. However, to avoid compatibility problems, x86-software usually implies only 32-bit, with the term x86-64 or x64 reserved to denote 64-bit software.[4][5]
