-NetBSD/amd64 is a port to the AMD64 family of processors and

+NetBSD/amd64 is a port to the AMD64 family of processors; it
+supports CPUs that implement the 64-bit x86

NetBSD/amd64 is a true 64bit operating system. Running
-32bit NetBSD/i386 binaries is supported as well, see
-compat_netbsd32(8). Running 32bit Linux emulations will
