Improved launch speeds
Looking for faster launch speeds? Adobe has enhanced general performance and, in particular, has reduced launch times with Adobe Reader 9. Try it: You'll notice the difference. |
| Quote: |
Native Adobe Flash® support
Adobe Reader 9 can natively display rich media content, which you'll notice immediately with Portfolios. Interested in viewing SWF and FLV files? Adobe Reader 9 is the answer. |
And more changes of course. |

| Apparently you can't launch flash files directly in it, which is disappointing. But it is definately faster loading. |

Greetings!
That said, this version 9 is indeed faster than previous versions. |

Some on Neowin say they're not going to bother with Foxit anymore now.
It's definately a pleasant surprise. |

This version of Adobe takes 200MB of HD space.
Foxit, 7MB. |

FFTW...
Also for some reason Intel Atom is slow with Adobe Reader 9, but normal speed with Foxit (mind you it's a funny CPU...)

| Well seeing as I still have 125 gigs free and use Reader all the time (9 is definately a good upgrade) I don't care terribly much how much HD space it uses. |
