Interviewed by CNN on 13/5/2010 15:20, Jay told the world:
I found a good deal on a Win7 Premium 64-Bit machine and wondering
about SM running on it and Flash Player. There is no 64-Bit Flash
Player yet and wondering if SM will fit the bill both on 64-Bit and
Flash ...
You can run the 32-bit Seamonkey (the one that's actually available, you
know) in 64-bit Windows with no problem. It will use the 32-bit Flash
player.
Actually, that's true for most applications. Only a few apps have 64-bit
native versions, and those tend to be very memory-hungry apps, like
Photoshop, which will benefit from having more than 4Gb RAM all to
themselves. And most of them will offer to install both the 32-bit and
the 64-bit versions in parallel, so you can use the 64-bit one when you
need lots of RAM and the 32-bit one when you need compatibility.
(MS-Office is an exception: you have to choose either the 32-bit or the
64-bit version. Unless you are an Excel jockey with a really humongous
spreadsheet, you are better off staying with the 32-bit one for the time
being).
Even Internet Exploder comes in two versions in Vista/7 64bit: a native
64-bit one and a 32-bit one. Most people use only the 32-bit one,
because it is compatible with Flash and other plugins.
Thanks, it's the wife's new computer, no Office will be installed,
doesn't need it. Mostly just browsing and email and she's pretty handy
with Seamonkey .. thanks
This is not the real Jay Garcia, is it???
