Well I have to apologize, I've reached senility! My past bad experience was with netbsd amd64 afterwhich I bailed and went to FreeBSD i386 (thanks google). But I guess the basic question remains - are there any considerations in regards ports, linux emulation, etc that would sway me to remain i386? Sorry about that!
