Here's a survey from Adobe on their new download layout. One of the questions is the OS that you use. Letting them know you use Linux through their survey may get them to support Linux more (especially 64 bit flash).

And the chance to win $500 isn't a bad opportunity either :)

You don't need Wine.
It's an online survey, it uses Flash and is like most other surveys.
Also, I just made the survey here and acted like a normal Linux-user would, I mean should.

Thanks for posting this, I filled out the survey. We need to show companies like Adobe that there are plenty of Linux users out there, and that they should support us.

I have a really negative attitude toward adobe, I hope they don't hate me for that, lol.

I can't get past the first screen asking to download the Adobe Reader like I "normally would", because I didn't find a way to download for Linux :)

If Adobe brought all their products to linux it would literally take linux from a hobbyist operating system to a true competitor.

I mean...The Adobe Suite alone could run a video production studio.

I think adobe coming to linux would be the best think I can think of for linux...

It would be even better than dell putting it on all their pcs...

It doesn't download anything. It's just a simulation.

FIlled it in and sent it to them, if they draw me as the winner they probably ditch it and go for another one when they see my answers :D

I filled out the survey. Every Linux user we can get to do it helps.

I appreciate Adobe because they got a workable version of Flash 9 for us. If they could get other things going, I'd appreciate them even more.
