Granted - but my client won't be in a hurry to buy a new computer.  And Google 
says: "We intend to continue supporting the 32-bit build configurations on 
Linux to support building Chromium."  Chromium still being available on 
Wheezy, the Debian Chromium Maintainers are presumably still supporting it, 
so it is not that much larger a risk than it was before.  Google Chrome, of 
course, will simply not get updates.
