It does make sense to go in for an AMD64 based system
right now but on the windows world, you won't find
many software optimised to work with the larger 64 bit
bus as yet. On the linux side, though, you should'nt
have any major problems :)
I know for sure that Debian supports AMD 64. There was
talk of a slackware port also (slack64 ??) but I dont
think it is out yet or its not supported by patrick
yet.
