Indeed it is, though I wish they had an RPM version available.  Their 
instructions say to remove all previous Flash plugins before installing.

I wonder if they will be starting a new repository: 
adobe-linux-x86_64.repo????  Maybe after they release the 64 bit 
verision for real?  I can only hope so!

This could be the one that opens the floodgates for other x86_84 packages!
