+**PyPy 1.4** implements **Python 2.5.** It supports all of the core
language, passing the Python test suite (with minor modifications that were
already accepted in the main python in newer versions). It supports most
of the commonly used Python standard library modules. For known differences
with CPython, see our `compatibility`_ page. If you are interested in
helping with 2.6, 2.7 or 3.x features, `contact us`_!
-PyPy 1.3 runs essentially only on Intel `x86 (IA-32)`_. On 64-bit platforms
-you have to use the 32-bit compatibility mode, for now -- or `contact us`_

+PyPy 1.4 runs essentially only on Intel `x86 (IA-32)`_ and `x86_64`_ platforms,
+with ARM being underway.
+Feel free to contact us if you want to port it to any other platform!
