According to an agreement signed by iXsystems and Adobe Systems, the browser of the next PC-BSD version will have an integrated Flash Player, which is compatible due to the FreeBSD Linux layer. Matt Olander, with the PC-BSD Project, considers this agreement as a significant step in the development of the PC-BSD project.

The inclusion of the Adobe Flash player for the PC-BSD desktop systems plays an important role in the development of the PC-BSD operating system as it will make possible an increase in the number of applications that can run on the user's system without being necessary the installation of additional plug-ins.

"Flash technology is the standard for developing and viewing rich internet applications. Users of PC-BSD as their day-to-day OS know that the inclusion of Adobe Flash player as a default option will enhance their user experience and expand the number of applications they can successfully run on their PCs", said Michael Lauth, CEO of iXsystems.
