"They will just have to shell out more money for all new 64 bit software....Of course, we all know that they only have to buy a new operating system, all the old applications will work fine."

And after shelling out for an exorbitant AMD64 machine, then waiting a year or so, and shelling out more for the 64 bit OS, they will have only 32 bit applications to run - and will be in exactly the same position as they are today.
To use that 64 bit OS in any meaningful way will require 64 bit applications, and they will have to buy all new 64 bit applications, assuming they are available, and these will be very expensive because the volume will be low for the ISVs.
