My sentiments exactly, but can someone tell all those poor misguided IA32 users that 
Flash for Linux/x86 does in fact exist?(Of course, it's a shame it's a fiddly closed-source product that thus can't be distributed with 'Free'-minded distributions and spare the whining in the first place, but that's still no excuse.  And yes, I want a Shockwave player, too.)
Edit: In other news, x86 FreeBSD users, and/or users sticking with Phoenix 0.6 (which is theoretically Mozilla 1.3a-based)... may want to stick with /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin6 or the equivalent Linux package, because something about one or the other is making my effort to try 7 nondeterministic.  
When it works, I can say it seems quite a bit relievingly faster than 6.  :-P
