Flash is only for 32-bit, apparently Adobe does not like 64bit, or PPC
processors.
I'm not sure if the new beta is all that good thus far. Think its too early
still.  I tried it out some last night and it seemed to be crashing more
than when I was using 9.0.115.0.  This is of course only my experience.
I've not looked around to find the general consensus online as of yet.
