I use an ACER notebook 5050 with 2 partitions (one i386, and other amd64) the amd64 is faster, the software is very stable, and everything works...
I do not use the sleep mode, the freebsd kernel keeps the processor halted when not in use, so the battery lasts longer, and the boot (total boot is less than 30 seconds...) to have the gnome 2.22 up and ready... with all I need in my working day (office, emai, multimedia, games...., software develop, voip, phone calls... and internet)....is This weekend I will format the i386 partition and install amd64 over it .. I am very satisfied with the amd64 of FreeBSD, indeed is now working in all 6 notebooks if the family (brothers, sons, daughters...) The only "slow" thing we have was the evolution (in gnome) now it is as faster as other applications in the computer....
