I'd say completely yes.

The propriatery flash "plugin" is still 32-bit only as far as I'm aware, 
but that is of no concern being as there is a 64-bit "wrapper" for it.

Go for it! (Silly not to use the 64-bits of the CPU!)

Cheers,
Martin


(All 64-bit except for the 32-bit netbook and 32-bit-ish Epia C3)
