Hi Kyle,
If you follow the links from that document to the more detailed
requirements, you'll find individual OS-specific links to documents that
spell out the requirements in more detail, including hardware-specific
info.
The post to which I referred you to earlier discusses Xeon only, but the
same answer applies to AMD64 and EM64T as well: in sum, Windows x64.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
