Multiple advertised task sequences with different boot images?

Question
-
Hi,
Another quick one hopefully(!)
We have quite a few optional task sequences advertised to the Unknown computers group...
If any of these used different boot images, which one does the actual client use when F12 is pressed??

Dpending on the hardware, it will take the bootimage from the Task Sequence that was Advertised to the Collection last... Take a look here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/configmgrosd/thread/1b1a095b-5bd7-41d9-82fe-a6d4ffc748d4

Also if you have multiple it will use the bootimage for the last advertisement to the collection by default. Is there a reason to use x64 over x86 boot image? The x86 bootimage is able to deploy x64 Operating systems (just found that out lastweek). Only need the x64 boot image if you are build and capture a x64 OS, otherwise you could make it easy on yourself and use the x86.
