If it has a G5 or a Core 2 processor, then its 64 bit capable.

Then that means the 1st gen Air will have no problems executing Snow Leopard. Am I correct?
I should really pay more attention to what has been happening at Apple.

Correct. The first gen Air has a Core Duo 2, therefore is 64-bit capable.
