Re: 64-bit versus 32-bit Vista

Adobe have to prioritise their resources. Browsers gain nothing from
becoming 64-bit. Photoshop and other applications can gain considerably:
these are getting priority.

There is no x64 Apple version of Photoshop CS4, because Apple simplified
their development languages by dropping support for the one Apple
Photoshop was written in, so major effort has to be applied to a
Photoshop rewrite for an x64 CS5.


I think only IE8 has a released 64-bit version, though there are beta
x64 versions of some other browsers.

64-bit Flash Player is not likely to be high on Adobe's priority list
because the existing 32-bit version with 32-bit browsers does everything
anyone needs for now.
