Shockwave - now compatible with Intel Macs
Adobe's Shockwave player has at long last been adapted for the Intel platform, according to a new report. The Adobe Shockwave Player allows users to view web-friendly three-dimensional applications, games, and other implementations. Since the application relies heavily on three-dimensional imagery, it would most likely be affected by running in Rosetta – Apple's solution to run PowerPC applications on Intel hardware.
While the information has been posted on VersionTracker, Adobe has yet to refresh its own download page with the Intel information.

It's not on Adobe's main Shockwave download page (only Shockwave Player 10 is for some reason).

There IS Shockwave for Intel Macs. It's been available for sometime, but the idiots kept it hidden.

Now I can hop into my time machine and hit up Shockwave.com and play all the games that everyone forgot about.
What was the point of releasing SW when Adobe Air is already... like... there?
