Last June, Adobe made Flash Player 9 for both Macintosh and Windows. Now, Adobe has relased another version of the Flash Player 9 that is reported to work better with Intel-based Macs.

According to Sydney Sloan, group product marketing manager of Adobe, the old Flash Player 9 version "has been rewritten to improve the performance and "expressiveness," or interactivity, of Flash applications." If that's the case, then Intel-based Mac users could expect a far better performance from the newly-released Flash Player 9. Say bye-bye to creepy dialog boxes informing you that your current flash player couldn't support a certain flash presentation.

Adobe has now released the Public Beta or the pre-released version of Flash Player 9 software for Mac users. This content has been made available to developers and consumers alike to take it for a spin. The purpose of this beta is for the company to receive feedback to verify that the new player is compatible with existing content and for developers to get a chance to test their content and applications as well before the actual release of the product.

So far this product has garnered mixed reviews from those that has already tested it. There have been reports of unexpected quits starting from the installation process up to various browsers on wake-from-sleep when the Flash 8.5 beta is present.
