      Is Adobe Really that lazy that they can't just repackage the installer
      so it will work on a 64bit version of windows?




As Mike says, ATM was discontinued years ago, so it's not a case of laziness - I assume it was a simple case of lack of return for resources required or maybe Adobe just decided it wasn't core business. After all, ATM for Windows was really just a mechanism to enable people to use T1 fonts (and, later, MM and OT fonts), with a few basic font management features thrown in. Though I've long been a fan of ATM as a font manager (its simplicity was what I loved about it), I realise its day has come and gone.
