Section 26.2.1. Planning wording

From
Theo Kramer
Date:
Section 26.2.1. Planning wording includes the following

"In any case the hardware architecture must be the same — shipping from, say, a 32-bit to a 64-bit system will not
work."

would  be more correct if it read as follows

"In any case the CPU architecture must be the same — shipping from, say, a 32-bit to a 64-bit system will not work."

as “hardware architecture” would imply the difference between say Dell and IBM which should be ok if the CPU is the
samearchitecture ...

I feel we might have cases where differences beyond the CPU might
matter, though I can't think of any now.
