64bit with 32bit clients

Right now I'm using 8.04 i386. One of the only reasons I am, actually,
was that the AMD64 versions of Ubuntu wouldn't load correctly when I
first installed them on my HP ML370G5 servers (this was back in the Edgy
days). Also, I was testing one after that and there were some strange
printing issues from Firefox as well as some other non-mission-critical
weirdnesses when using the i386 clients. I'm pretty sure those things
have been ironed out since then, though. YMMV. Anyone else using AMD64
w/i386 clients care to give their experiences?
Cheers,
