Good day to confirm this comment I would appreciate T h e b e s t o f Z D N e t d e l i v e r e d your website very nice to everyone Yes, Oracle is the only one with shared-disk architecture, but that is there advantage. It means you can add or remove nodes and the database lives on. In a shared nothing architecture, if you lose a node, you lose the system. I'm sure Oracle appreciates EMC highlighting their advantage.I also desire to signal in your RSS feeds. Thank you as soon as once again and maintain up the great operate Awesome post! Thank you very much || thanks for nice content this is really benefit to me.

I just ran Flash 10 demo on Adobe site and got 3GHz Core2Duo 60% busy
DeRSSS 10th Jun 2010
I mean -- consistently 60% load, and this is after the update to 10.1.53.64 version.

No wonder Opera said you could cook an egg running Flash and Apple said they do not want this thing killing user experience from 10 to 1.5-4 hours for iPad.

Personally I dont use flash whenever possible -- unfortunately some of my classes have videos that require flash which means I cannot use my 64-bit browser as I use for most browsing.

Adrian doesn't mention this but this new version of Flash apparently still does not support hardware-accelerated decoding on Mac OS X.

@kenosha7777 Apple only opened up the API for hardware-accelerated video decoding in April of this year, so the version of the Flash Player that does that is still in beta and will be released after 10.1 (10.2 later this year?).

Accelerated video decoding is accessible via GPU driver
DeRSSS 11th Jun 2010
@Matt_Fabb@...: no additional APIs necessary.

And, either way, games for MacOS X use videoacceleration for years.

Same here for Firefox, can't get past version 10,0,42,34

Either the download does not pass the integerity check or looks like all goes well, but still no newer version for FF.

Finally did get it to update for IE.

Damn Adobe, why can't you get your act together?!?

@MoeFugger I'm happy for you. I might even give it a try. When I did try to use the last beta, though, it caused Chrome to hard crash repeatedly whenever I went to ZDNET.

64-Bit support would be really nice, I mean really, how long has 64-bit been around? I have various games and applications that run in 64-bit that are over a year old. Seems like Adobe is dragging their feet in this arena.

seriously, since its beta till now, i "benchmark" with playfish game call restaurant city, with google desktop app call laptop check to monitoring the CPU working on real time and with the software call "Core Temp" to monitor my cpu temperature.
the result is shXX as usual, the cpu usage just fly high like more than 70%, the cpu temperature are more than
70 Celsius according the software!!!!!!!!!!(some times just go 80 Celsius)
nothing change of performance since version 10, and i still fry my egg with my laptop.And perhaps android can do the job too!


(I thought i can fry the eggs only when i play CRYSIS.........)
