Opera's new 9.5 version has a 64bit version that supports flash 9.
It's still in beta and I think still has a few bugs but it's nice to
know this is coming. Read the comments about each release at the
bottom. They usually have some info as to how flash support is doing.

Also Opera doesn't have the X pixmap memory issue on the client.
