Re: VMWare & Flash under PPC

Nope, VMWare runs on top of an ix86 processor. It doesn't deal with
emulating one processor on another, it only deals with virtualizing the
hardware to run a second OS on a virtual machine.

Neither. The Flash4 you can find crashes big time, and there is no
Flash5 at all. Bug Macromedia about that... or educate the web designers
to not use stupid (mostly)one-platform-only-binary-no-public-specs stuff
:)
