It's not nearly finalized yet, so anything could change. It's not set in stone. But I've read online (ultra reliable, I know) that it will be in home versions too.

But your remark made me curious, and rereading the Wikipedia article does indeed mention it's only supported on AMD64, not 32-bit. (Granted, you could argue that you don't need it if on 32-bit as NTVDM is good enough.) But who knows, maybe they'll fix that.
