  | Should work, there's an AMD64 Fedora Core release due at some stage.
  | If AMD64 linux has problems, the CPU will work fine in 32bit mode.

 the SUSE 9.1 Pro boxed set contains a dual-sided DVD;
 one side is the x86 32-bit 2.6 system, and the other
 is the 64-bit AMD equivalent.   and LXF magazine has
 been reviewing 64-AMD systems (mostly servers AFAICR)
 for about a year now ....

cheers!
