You do know there's a freebsd-mobile list as well? Anything in its archives? You can always run i386 BSD on an AMD64. If your big-ass machine has a big-ass disk then you can put both 1386 and amd64 on it and dual boot. There's a big list of ports which don't run on amd64 which flew by this list recently. --Alex
