They're working on it... They actually have started generating 64-bit nightly builds for Windows and Linux: https://nightly.mozilla.org/ If I had to guess what the hold-up has been: User confusion about which version to use (32-bit will work for everyone, 64-bit won't) Plugin availability (even Adobe and Sun didn't make 64-bit flash or java until recently)
