I'm curious how many of the 64 bit os users out there, really need a

Is there any reason you couldn't live with a 32 bit one?
Can Fedora put firefox.i386 in the x86_64 tree, just like several
other i386 rpms?
I realize adding it is pretty simple, I've done it for a long time.
However with processors being realitivly cheap new users are buying
the amd64 all the time and want to run a 64 bit os. We either turn
around and tell them, go to mozilla.org <http://mozilla.org/> grab
the package and install it else were ( can't find fedora bugs ) or cp
your fedora.repo add i386 through it, and overlap a hole lot of
packages, "have fun with that"....
I personally use one from mozilla.org <http://mozilla.org/> at the
moment because I do need things like flash and plugins like that.
Before you start whining telling me its closed source, my wife is a
photorgrapher and her website has a lot of flash, I'm sure many of
you can understand telling your wife no, can't go to your website
because you used closed source flash would go over like a lead ballon
;) And its not just here site, I go to a lot of places that have
flash and so do a lot of people.
Does open source solutions like Swfdec, Gnash and GPLFlash work for
you?. If anyone packages these up, it might be worth checking out.
gnash does not build on x86_64
swfdec has no plugin
gplflash keeps crashing firefox
