Are there any estimates of when freebsd will move to 64 bits on the upcoming sledgehammer CPU from AMD? It's my guess that it will be the first affordable, widely available, 64 bit system out there. The itanium certainly looks like it was a stillbirth, and rumors have Intel working on something more like the sledgehammer.
