The Enterprise line does have AMD64 version for the next release
(which is currently in beta - named taroon).

Red Hat Linux 10 (currently in beta - severn) supports IA32 (Pentium,
PII, PIII, PIV, Athlon) only.

It is expected as the Red Hat Linux Project gets going the community
will provide an AMD64 version in the future.
