Okey, here you have screen shot of a site you say you have looked at the
source (you get that if you press [Ctrl]-[F3] in opera):
Opera PowerPC:

Opera Sparc:

But you will still not believe, as you think you can run everything on your
computer, so please run this binary and give a screenshot

You still not don't understand, I have _ONE DISTRIBUTION_ installed on
machines with different architecture. As the important part here is that there
isn't any real flash plug-in for other architectures than x86 when it comes to
GNU/Linux, regardless of distribution.

Go ahead, but keep in mind to mention that the screenshots are using GNU/Linux
PowerPC and GNU/Linux Sparc with the official plug-in from Adobe. But I know,
you will fail to remember that, for it would make you seem to like a fool, as
there aren't any official plug-in from Adobe for PowerPC or Sparc or most of
the other architectures I have all the time mentioned.
You could also ask Adobe themselves

Why would people want to have a Ferrari? As they want something better than
the old T-Ford. All GNU/Linux architectures supports Flash, but Adobe don't
support any other architecture than x86. Adobe don't support more than two x86
based operating systems, compare that to the Mozilla projects that supports
far more operating systems than Adobe. Still, Flash sites limits access and
will never provide as broad user base as a well written HTML site will.
I stand firmly at my original statement, you still haven't managed to come
with something that would change the facts, all you have been able to do is
act like a kid and insult people when you can't "win".
