Hi:

I have a stupid question. I am looking at the processors supported by
FreeBSD, and I see AMD64 (which I know is AMD) and ia64 (which I have no
clue what it is).

I am looking at getting a new server, with a XEON processor.

My confusion is two-fold. One, they say the processor is 32/64. Can FreeBSD
use the 64 aspect of this? And if so, is it ia64, or under i386?

Thank You!
