Adobe releases 64-bit Flash

I'll go with that, been waiting 9 months for 64 bit Flash , a few more won't kill me!!

I am watching a video in IE8 x64 with Flash Square right now. Seems to be working as well as it does in 32bit

No problems so far, using 64Bit flash in 64Bit ie9.

Woohoo, IE9 and Flash x64 - about time . I'll get this installed now.

Same here, no issues so far

OK - You guys talked me into it.

I now have Adobe 64-Bit(Square) installed for all my browsers.

Why does the 32 bit one have to be uninstalled first? We still have 32 bit browsers, with the bookmarks & everything, so what happens with that? Also, though Firefox has a 64 bit browser, they recommend to run the 32 bit one.

If we uninstall the previous versions, as they (Adobe) recommends, how will our 32 bit browsers work?

There is a 32-bit version of flash square but I did not uninstall flash from my 32-bit IE or firefox and I only installed flash square in 64-bit mode. So you don't HAVE to uninstall the 32-bit flash UNLESS you choose to install 32-bit Flash Square. Your 64-bit browser won't have any flash so there you can install 64-bit flash square right away. I haven't even downloaded 64-bit Firefox so I have no point of reference to answer that.

Note these are betas so IF you install them you will have to manually uninstall them as updates and the final version will not update automatically.

I've installed it, as well as the 64 bit version of Firefox. Seems to work fine so far, both on IE9 (beta) & Firefox 3.6.3 (the latest 64 bit version, otherwise known as Namoroka).

I'm very pleased with the browser performance.

My only question is, why did it take so long?

Maybe they were drinking coffee and eating donuts until someone told them about HTML5.

Could be they was working with Microsoft all along. Somehow I wonder why the release with IE9. This could have been a ploy to gain media coverage from either side of the coin.
