Behold, Firefox for Intel Cometh!

heh, March is prolly the time Macromedia will fix all it's plug-ins for Intel apps

What gets me about this is that x86 devkits have been out for what, six months? Were Macromedia/Adobe too tight to rent one? Or are they just going under the assumption that no-one will actually own any iMacs until around March?

Another thing - if Flash works in Safari (which it does), will "fixing" Flash break Safari? Will you have to wait a month after intelFlash is released before Apple release a fix?

Seems to be that if the couple of guys working on intelFirefox can patch it up the week the iMacs are released, why can't a huge company like Adobe? With all their staff, money and resources? Plain bizarre

Josh Aas has just released an unofficial firefox 1.5.0.1 RC1 build with a workaround to make flash work until macromedia will release an updated plugin

I've just tried it flash works fine now, unfortunaly java works too ;P

Well downloaded and installed this new version, and not having much luck. I use Firefox fulltime and flash was not a big consideration, so a few weeks ago I downloaded the uninstall from Macromedia so I could use it without crashing all the time.

Well I downloaded the Flash plug-in and installed again, but DeerPark (or FireFox or whatever) still comes up saying plug-in is not installed. When I click to install the plug-in from firefox, it simply comes up as unknown plug-in. Any ideas?

The plugin you downloaded is ppc for sure and will never work , i'm not very familiar with the mac version of firefox but i guess it uses the system flash plugin, does flash still work in safari ?

Great news and thanks update myzar. flash and java scripts work now.
