I am using flash with my Ubuntu 10.04 x64 without problems. Some few
times a flash video will not load at the first attempt, and I hit the
Refresh button in Firefox, and it loads OK then.

If the only issue is flash, I think that the text could be changed to
"There are some issues with Adobe Flash in Ubuntu 64-bit".

Also a question. MS provides a 32-bit version of IE under Windows x64,
and Firefox is also 32-bit for them. If I recall correctly, neither
flash nor silverlight work with IE x64.

This means that Ubuntu x64 is actually superior, because flash works
with Firefox x64 in most cases (for me in all cases).

Perhaps something similar can be done in Ubuntu, that is provide Firefox
32-bit, so as Adobe Flash to work OK?
