In my experience, no, it's no different at all.  Ignoring
speed/whatever, running Sarge 64-bit Debian on our one (dual
processor, hyperthreading) EM64T box has been no different than on the
numerous Opteron boxes we run.

I can't comment on the debian _kernels_, as we compile from upstream,
but we've had no problems with the box.
