Hi Denis,

David, Ubuntu recommends installing the 64 bit OS only on machines with an AMD 64bit CPU.

Do you have some pointers concerning that statement?
I would be quite interested in seeing such official statement.
Really! (for my work)

AFAIK, and as David told before, amd64 is for 64-bit on AMD _and_ Intel processors too.

Ubuntu is based on Debian, which explains clearly what amd64 stands for on this page: http://www.debian.org/ports/

Cheers, J.C.
