Due to the lack of a 64-bit flash plugin, the only way to browse 
flash-enabled sites currently is through the 32-bit version of firefox (unless 
there is a way to use the 32-bit plugin with firefox.x86_64, which I think is 
not possible).

Therefore, I consider the 32-bit version firefox a must have on the x86_64 iso 
files (there is no firefox  i386.rpm in the DVD of FC5test3).

I am even recommending the 32-bit version to be the default on x86_64 until a 
proper alternative (free flash plugin or 64-bit version distributed by 
Macromedia) exists.

Regards.
