Re: Opteron support in dpkg

Hi,

I opt for amd64, too. I agree with most arguments made here, and think
this is the most reasonable decision. 

As a side note, there are actually no other processors then AMD ones
with this extension in the wild. I know, Intel announced a couple of 
new processors to be released this summer, which are claimed to have a 
compatible extension, but who knows how long it will take for them to 
actually be availeable at the store around the corner. Via and 
Transmeta might - or better: will - surely follow, but I did not hear 
nothing so far from them. If someone has more infos, I would be
grateful for some URLs.

Greetings
Frederik Schueler
