MySQL On 64 Bit Windows 7?

Although 74 bit Windows 7 is listed as supported [1], I do not see
such a binary listed on the download page [2]. Should one use the 32
bit installer on 64 bit Windows? Is the installer page sniffing my UA
(Firefox on Debian) and trying to guess as to the correct binary for
me? Am I looking in the wrong place?
Thanks.

"mysql." 
I would imagine the installer is 32-bit only just so they don't have to
release two versions of it.
I'm sure it'll allow you to download the 64-bit version of the server
though.

I see, thanks. I did not realise that a Windows installer might
install applications of a different architecture than itself.
