The link you provided to Walmart's ad has the specs further down- it is precisely the OS in this case, is 32-bit, but I believe the CPU ( I5 ) most likely is a 64bit.
If it was originally a corporate pc, I wonder what else in the hardware might be 32 bit.
I am cautious after those MSI issues we saw. Other notes:
No webcam- 4096MB RAM - original battery, not a new one "tested to take a charge".
I am not saying it is a bad choice- maybe it's good if the person is careful about checking what it is, and is not.
I did a quick check for Linux compatibility- it is certified for Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.10, and Enterprise SUSE - see below-

why do you thinkk WIndows 7 is a 32 bit system? Maybe you are right but
I thought most Windows 7 as 64 bit. What is the CPU?
Is it not an i7?
