Right...choosing non-linux 64bit solutions over 64bit linux. Remind me
again... what are the 64bit non-linux solutions for PC hardware right
now? Isn't windows 64bit xp still in some sort of beta phase?
New users.. running amd 64bit hardware (thats what we are talking
about really arent we).. can just as easily choose 32bit fedora core..
and avoid this sort of crap completely. Or.. they can wait till MS
64bit XP lands and macromedia finally feels significant market
pressure to get off their asses and build a 64bit versions of their
plugins. In the meantime we can all hope and pray that svg magically
matures and someone crafts professional development tools for it to
challenge macromedia in the marketplace and we a no longer held
hostage by macromedia to get our required dosage of pointless
interactive web experience.

<pre wrap="">Well , given that windows xp 64 finally reached gold status and should
be on stores soon, maybe things could change...
Or not... I dont have any numbers on the number of sales of 64 bit
processors , but given the huge amount of 32 bit processors around , I
guess we'll have to wait a little more untill x86_64 processors become
more widespread before macromedia and other vendors port their closed
source programs to 64 bits...

I've heard the gplflash crashes firefox often. I will try it tonight
if I get a chance. Until Macromedia releases a 64bit version, this is
what I do.
yum remove firefox
grab firefox from mozilla.org and install it. grab flash 7, install it.

yum remove firefox<br>
