Until you fix this stupid inability to control cpu freq using the amd64 kern with Intel core2 duo or quad, I will stick with linux which in all flavors i tried can control the cpu freq. This is a glaring omission on your part with the of cpu's now available.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just use a core2 cpu and 64 bit freebsd 7.0
