I can swear someone said it was already ported for 64bit..


Not yet.  Making AROS kernel modular is a huge perk, IMO.  This means that VESA driver can be loaded (or not) via GRUB which means AROS_64 can use a standard GRUB instead of the current custom GRUB.  This is not the only suprise Michal has instore for us.  :-D
