After April 2014, when M$ stops supporting winXP (and soon all 32bit OSs), and soon thereafter computer oems stop making motherboards with bioses (vs UEFI), hdd oem stop making drives with FAT/MBR (vs GPT), will there be continued 32bit Euphoria support for the 100's of millions of existing computers still running winxp?

M$ still has a 32bit version of their latest OS (Windoze 8), which will go on until 2023. Even after then, Linux/GNU, the BSDs, etc will continue to maintain x86 support, so 32bit clearly isn't going anyway anytime soon.
Euphoria still supports Windoze 9x, even now, long after Firefox and Cygwin have dropped it. If that's anything to go by, XP support will probably continue long past 2014...
