I predict the issue for flash on 64 bit Vista used with 64 bit IE7
will be resolved soon. Adobe likely will be rushing to solve this
problem because their flash is so widely used.

Horse feathers.  I predict it won't be fixed soon and that you work
for Adobe.  And regardless, you can't build sites with predictions.

Time will tell. I expect that the many users of flash ads will become
quite upset when they hear that their ads are not being seen on 64 bit
Vista using 64 bit IE7. I expect they may complain to Adobe,
Microsoft, federal government agencies, and anyone else they can think
of until the problem is solved.

I never have worked for Adobe or any other software or media company.
Many think there is money to be made in selling of video and music and
thus want a piece of the action. Thus they use dozens of video and
audio formats, give you free player programs, etc in hope you will buy
some media they offer or media related programs. Hence we have a media
format war that makes the old browser war era look tame by comparison.
Real media was displaced on many large commercial web sites by
Microsoft media formats. Now with video quality greatly improved on
flv/swf, it has displaced Microsoft video formats on many large sites.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring. I do expect that Adobe, Real,
Microsoft, and Apple will continue to leave no stone unturned in their
attempts to gain more of the media market. None of the video formats
used on the web are anywhere near perfect. The different ways various
formats greatly compress video can make some differences even if the
various formats are at the same bit rate. How do you trade off video
vs sound quality etc. To get top DVD quality streaming on the web, you
would need a connection that allows over 10 Mbps for good streaming.
But even DVDs are compressed considerably. Hence the need for much
higher rates. A Blu-ray movie of average length may use 35 to over 40
GB on a 50 GB DL Blu-ray disc. Even this does not allow the full
resolution of the best that 70 mm film movies can offer.

Finally, do you work for Microsoft or do contract work for them?
