I installed Dapper on my AMD Turion based laptop. Recently I discovered
that there isn't a java plugin for this platform. I would like to have
java work on web pages where applets are used. So I was looking into
this. I understood that the Opera browser doesn't require a plugin, but
hasn't been released for this platform either.
So I was thinking about installing a 32 bit version of Firefox. I assume
this will solve the problem. Is there any reason not to do this? I
assume all the plugins will work under this platform?
I would prefer to stick with 64 bit applications, but I guess I'm not tied
to this option. Apparently Sun doesn't think we want a 64 bit desktop and
neither does Opera.
Thanks for any suggestions.
