64 bits BITE!
Until there is support for 64 bits, its USELESS to have the chip! I came to this realization after 6+ months with my AMD64. Even in Linux, it won't run a lot of OSS. My suggestion is thus - DON'T buy a chip based on 64bits, its like paying extra for a trailer-towing package on a Ford Focus . . .
