1) Don't attempt to run Eclipse off anything but a Sun JDK you've
freshly downloaded when you set up Eclipse. You can, but it's not in my
opinion "best practice". Right now, that means downloading, whether
32-bit or 64-bit, jdk1.6.0_21 from the Sun Java site. I even suggest
downloading and not actually installing the JDK, but keeping it as a
private copy for use only by Eclipse. This frees you from anything going
on in the rest of your computer host.
2) Remember: Ensure that your Eclipse and your JDK are of identical
bittedness.
3) I assume that the lack of a newline in your -mv argument above is an
artifact of copying and pasting. There should be one. See
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini
I hope this helps.

I followed Russell Bateman advice and it worked. I loaded the 64 bit JDK as I should have. The Eclipse is and was the 64 bit all the time.
the problem in -vm line is not due to any error of mine, this is what the unzip/installation had, but I did not have to touch that at all.
Thank you all
