Yes, I prefer the 32-bit version because it's more compatible with my other Windows applications (like Office). There are not many advantages to 64-bit EG, considering that it's SAS that does the heavy data access and computations. I can use 32-bit EG with 64-bit SAS, no problems. See more in my article from 5 years ago here. In fact, after all of this time, 32-bit EG will go back to being the default for SAS deployments in the next revision of the install process. It avoids the confusing interoperability issues.
