Dell is going to warranty the hardware - it doesn't have anything to do with which OS you are using.

But they can make it hell trying to get support. ;->

BTW - most of the PowerEdge stuff now can run the 86-64 as well as the i386

<strong opinion=ON> It still isn't AMD, so it still ain't x86-64. Intel calls it IA-64 aka EM64T for a reason, it's not the full x86-64 ISA. So as far as I'm concerned, you're really no better off on a server whether you run i386 or x86-64 on EM64T -- especially for anything I/O intensive. </strong opinion>
