Where is this coming from?
Linux isn't ditching it. A few distros stopped supporting it.
Linux kernel dropped i368, i468 and a few i568 architectures, and i redid some investigations. I was wrong sorry. I thought pendium d was a cpu line after the pentium 4 line, and that was the turning point, but its the original pentium line that gets ditched. My mistake ^^
Pentium D was a dual "core" Pentium 4 circa 2006ish
Reworded my sentence, sorry
Most serious distros are stopping their support for 32-bit... Not a few - the most prominent, which most of the others are build from.

Distros are not linux.
Linux is the kernel.
Oh, so you have e computer running a kernel now? Interesting. Would you care to share what kernel you are running with a distro?
