Developers have known this was coming for years. 32 bit apps will probably still run until 10.14. Apps that haven't complied yetr are probably not being supported anyway.

At least for me, I did not receive a notification when I launched MS Entourage  2008, which is definitely 32-bit.

The alert does seem to work. I tried it with another 32-bit app and got the warning. I didn't get it with either Word 2008 or Entourage 2008. However, I did get it with Excel 2008 and Powerpoint 2008.
