This is a 32-bit OS. If it had been a 64-bit OS you would have seen
something like Linux xxxxxx.computel.nl 2.4.21-27.0.2.EL #1 SMP Wed Jan 12
23:25:36 EST 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. (Notice the x86_64 instead
of i386 and i686)

When you buy an EL3 license you buy a license for either the 32-bit or the
64-bit OS. So this depends on what you have bought...

Bye,
Sander.
