I was trying to push it since 2009:
	[Fedora-livecd-list] auto-biarch (x86_64 + i686) LiveDVD patch + ISO
	https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-livecd-list/2009-June/msg00018.html
	http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Biarch_Spin

so when there exists now a releng-approved biarch spin why isn't the default
"Download" button on http://fedoraproject.org finally the biarch-autodetecting
spin?  A biarch single-desktop download would be enough with under 2GB size.

Besides users benefits Fedora could get the x86_64 ebtter performance over
other distros in various magazine reviews this way.
