RE[3]: No NetBSD love?

Amazing that some people find it easier to post erroneous information in statements beginning with "last I remember..." (which might very well be false, as in this case, and will fool people less informed in the subject) instead of just surf for some facts?

NetBSD is a complete system with its own website, www.netbsd.org.

To find information about support for the AMD64, click on the link to the right that says 'amd64'. It will take you to http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/amd64/

Near the top of the page you can read:

"The port is fully functional. It has been tested on single-CPU and multiprocessor (SMP) Opteron configurations. Since the release of NetBSD 2.0, it is a completely supported platform."


And why on earth would I suggest people to buy dual core CPUs if they were unsupported?
