To be clear, we tend not to pre-announce product plans for Red Hat
Linux, which closely tracks developments in the Open Source
communities.  We do provide a fair amount of detail about other
product lines such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

So, if the question is: "will the next version of Red Hat Linux
support the AMD64 platform in 64-bit mode," the answer is "we don't
know yet."  If the question is "Will Opteron be supported in the next
version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux," the answer is "yes."

Cheers,
