Yes, they should work on any AMD64 systems, but should also be considered 
more of a beta level product than standard Fedora Test 3.  There are still 
64bit vs. 32bit issues that make some things not work as expected (IE 
32bit plugins do not work with 64bit mozilla, etc).  That said, I have 
been running the first isos I made from test 2 for a couple of weeks now, 
and stability has not been much of an issue.
