Player 9 Updates (including Linux)

Adobe has released a beta of Player 9 for Linux. Info here.

I don’t use Linux - but, I think it’s important for adoption - especially w/ the free Flex compiler.

Performance-wise, it appears the Linux version is 20% faster than Win, except for font rendering - which is quite slow.

There are also updates to player for Mac and Windows as well. So, current official release is 9,0,16,0 - and new beta is 9,0,21,75.

I have no idea what has changed in the latest players (but I installed Mozilla and it seems to work fine) and haven’t done any benchmarking.
