There is also the option to use qemu (to emulate an x86 Linux system) along
with the x86 linux flash player binary.
Personally I just avoid flash sites though; they bug me on a technical level
(since websites shouldn't depend on proprietary, non-html technology), and
offend me on an ethical level (since they discriminate against blind users
and ppc linux users etc.). I figure it's best to just boycott any site that
uses flash :)
