I fail to see why a x64 Browser gets so much attention when those A##es at adobe refuse to create a x64 flash player for windows, they only just released a x64 flash for linux here and they claim it will work on x64 windows systems but no way in hell does it work, check them forums and see how many peepz are complaining about it.
Me thinks that is the advantage of being at a monopoly position, i'm the best f##k the rest attitude , (or maybe they don't want to create/release one bcause they hate M$)
I'm skipping on all x64 browsers untill there is at least a good replacement for flash or when them adobe geeks start looking at the demand instead to there bankaccount..

I have yet to see Adobe state the 64-bit Linux Flash Player addon would work in Windows.

We all are annoyed with the lack of 64-bit Flash for Windows, but we just have to be patient for now as Adobe doesn't really care what their customers want.

Adobe does what Adobe wants to do.

o.k I have searched google to no avail. Where is the download page for this thing?

Firefoxownload - Mozilla x86-64

btw I played with this for awhile. It ran fine. But when doing disk intensive stuff I noticed if I didn't have FF already open(even the 32 bit version) I had to wait forever for it to load up, since I only have one internal HD.

Instead what I did was make a Ramdisk. Every boot or login my script xcopies Firefox 3.6 Portable into the ramdisk. I can be doing a video mux but I hit the icon and it comes right up. I have 8 GB so I can afford to invest 128 MB. That gives me FF portable with 32 MB browser cache in the ramdisk with about 19 or 20 MB to spare.

When you hit a button or link the only thing it waits on is the server to transfer the data!

I imagine 64 bit FLash is like the Microsoft Position on 64 bit silverlight, "we wont release a 64 bit version because everybody uses 32 bit browsers, there is no demand" yes, and why are we using 32 bit browsers? BECAUSE THERE ARE NO 64 BIT PLUGINS! its catch 22 unfortunately, they dont want to make them because nobody uses the 64 bit browsers, and we wont use the browsers because they wont make the plugins
