To clarify (since I don't think anyone else has): IA64 means Itanium. Hot, large, *very* expensive, aimed at servers and workstations, and taking a *totally* different approach to encoding programs (and hence software compatibility). There is no IA64 port of Fedora (apart from the one called "Red Hat Enterprise Linux"...) Intel has variously called their version of AMD64 "IA32e" and "EM64T".
