Below the big button there is a small link that says "<a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html">All Systems & Languages</a>" which links to the matrix of all possible downloads. I think <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mozilla.com/">http://www.mozilla.com/</a> is an excellent landing page for "Here, Get Our Stuff".

I think it makes sense to put on the first page some kind of an indication that "this is what we guess your machine is; if you don't know, try this one first". Perhaps not Guillaume's exact words, but something that would help this person.
