Flash Player 9 for Linux

New Here ,
May 16, 2006 May 16, 2006
Could someone at Adobe please update us with what is happening with Flash Player 9 for Linux? I noticed that other Flex components have been released for Linux, so obviously there is some groundwork to Flash Player 9.

I know. Seriously. Adobe/Macromedia needs to get back on the bandwagon. Its so anoying. They skipped an entire version for us linux people. In the mean time, 2 new Flash GPL projects are gainning large support. They are loosing it. Then Microsoft's new platform... geez.. they really need to get their act together and focus on what they have and hold it strong before expanding and alienating their current customer base.

Will alienate? They've already alienated users a long time ago. That isn't the point, though, because it doesn't matter if users are alienated, it only matters if the users need flash.

The only thing that could make flash player better is open source. I don't see why they don't do it. They make money on the authoring tool, not the player. All of my Linux machines are ppc and x86_64, no flash there. I also don't have flash on my PDA, a Palm T|X. If the player was open sourced, people would stop complaining about how much flash sucks -- because, right now, there are very serious, legitimate, complaints against it.

Anyway, for now I'm hoping that SVG matures quickly. Although, I"m sure that once Adobe sees that train coming, they will extend Flash (dev.) to export SVG movies containing embedded binary data that can only play with their binary plugin.
