LOL

#

Y would u want it???? You should know better unless u did not bother to check out what the software is.... go to the website and check the facts for yourself rather than being expected to be spoon-fed...

#

go somewhere else and find out, moron.

#

It would be nice but I haven't seen an AIR application yet that is worth installing. Consider AIR Java crossbread Flash with all the bad that combination might mean.

Some assert that Linux's CLI is required to install Adobe AIR. Wrong!

Using (GNOME's) Nautilus file manager GUI, right-click on the Adobe BIN file and check under the Properties' Permissions tab, to allow executing the file as a program. Next, right-click and Rename the file to remove its .bin extension, so the file name is just AdobeAIRInstaller. Finally, double-click the file to run the Adobe installer, which pops open a new window, requests your authorization (password), and prompts you through the install. That's it.

You'll then find AIR maintenance items in the Ubuntu "Accessories" menu (or in the "Tools" menu of Mandriva Linux 2009). The .air file extension is associated with Adobe's run-time. An AIR application can be removed via the distro RPM or DEB package manager GUI, or by double-clicking its original .air installation file.

This is worth installing...
