Which distro for dual boot AMD64


Hey all,
Just bought an AMD64, first 64 bit machine, and unfortunately I need windows, but I also need linux, so im going to dual boot. Been using Fedora for some time now, and I am curious which distribution would be best for the AMD64? Any suggestions are much appretiated.
Also, i have set up my vaio laptops to dual boot XP and FC4, worked fine. Is the process to partition and install linux the same on a 64 bit?

Thanks so much!
Josh

Use what you are used too Fedora has a 64bit edition and partitioning/dual booting is the same no matter what distro/bitness you use.
