Sure. I have a scanner that is now useless because Canon never released a 64-bit driver. (The useful lifetime of a scanner is longer than the life of an individual PC or the time a manufacturer will support it.)
Lots of scientific and industrial equipment will not have 64-bit drivers.

Sure, the VM takes 20 seconds to boot to desktop, but that's better than junking a working piece of hardware simply because the manufacturer doesn't support it.
