Good day all. I am getting my (first) Athlon 64 x 2 today or tomorrow and was wondering whether I should stick with the reliable x86 or try the AMD64 port. Any performance penalties when running x86 FreeBSD on a 64-bit machine? Also what are the common problems, i.e. drivers, applications that are known not to work under the AMD64. This is going to be a desktop/workstation type system. Thanks in advance, Michael
