i386 is 32-bit and amd64 is 64-bit. All newer Intel non-Itanium 64-
bit chips are compatible with amd64.
Like I discovered though you may want to grab an appropriate LiveCD
to match your hardware though, because your hardware may be too
recent for a release CD. See my thread about 5 days back in the
archives--some people that replied gave me links to where the release
CDs were.
