Is there any Linux distribution out there that can support the 64-bitness of the Opteron out of the box? I know SuSE has made some noise about this, but I'm not sure what the others are doing. Yes, I know it's early days...
Mandrake, http://www.mandrakesoft.com/company/press/pr?n=/pr/products/2418&wslang=... apparently costs real $$$.
BTW I have heard from a few people I know who have been developing on the Opteron (people who develop on many other 64bit platforms), apparently its stupidly fast, and I want one :)

Stupidly fast? I wonder how fast it would take to render a decent scenary in 3d studio max, blender, bryce (what a cool software!) etc.
