You will have to use 64-bit x86-64 versions of Windows to use v8 or even v8.1 of Exchange Server 2007. Still it’s demanded only for full units, so that trial version demands just 32 bits. If there are any companies applying Exchange Server with thirty-two-bit hardware, they’ll be aware of the time to change their equipment in a certain period. But hardware is not the single point. According to the feature that Exchange Server 2007 doesn’t provide in-place upgrades some companies applying software of 2000 and 2003 will have to move to the version of 2007.
