Thanks for the details, Dave! Basically, I was wondering if I can build a 64-bit application that runs on ARM servers. Since they have low footprint and power requirements, I thought it would be nice to build a stack/cluster. Looks like I can do it as an experiment with limitations but its best to stick with intel servers for serious and demanding applications.
