"The immense popularity of sites like YouTube has unexpectedly turned Flash Video into one of the de facto standards for Internet video. The proliferation of sites using FLV has been a boon for remix culture, as creators made their own versions of posted videos. And thus far there has been no widespread DRM standard for Flash or Flash Video formats; indeed, most sites that use these formats simply serve standalone, unencrypted files via ordinary web servers. Now Adobe, which controls Flash and Flash Video, is trying to change that with the introduction of DRM restrictions in version 9 of its Flash Player and version 3 of its Flash Media Server software."

Since when did anyone needed a browser that could take up more then 4GB's of RAM? I don't understand why people wail about having to use 32bit apps on a 64bit machine. For things like a web browser the 32bit version would probably be faster.
Commercial Unix that was 64bit 10years ago shipped plenty of apps as 32bit. If it doesn't need more then 4GB of ram for addressing then there is no need for it to be a 64bit app.
