Linux Comes up for AIR

"The company is making available version 1.5 of AIR for users of the OpenSuSE 10.3, Fedora Core and Ubuntu 7.10 or higher open-source Linux distributions. AIR 1.5 also has worked on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop, but the company has not tested it on this implementation of Linux.

""We're experiencing nearly 100 million installations of Adobe AIR on Mac and Windows by the end of this year," said Adrian Ludwig, group product manager for the platform business unit at Adobe. "That strength of platform across Mac and Windows is going to make it very easy for developers to build applications that will end up running on Linux as well.""
