I see there is an updater for 2.0.1 for Windows. So where do you get
the Mac version 2.0.1? I still just see the trial version (which I
already have) Also any word on the transferring the windows license to Mac?

Kevin Newman said the following:
I was able to get Flex Builder 2.0 running on Java 6.0 using the -vm
switch (in a shortcut):
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\FlexBuilder.exe" -vm
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin\javaw.exe"
This disabled the windows xp theme in Flex Builder, so I copied
javaw.exe.manifest from Flex's jre/bin directory to the jre1.6.0/bin
directory. That fixed it up nice. :-)
I haven't tried Eclipse standalone, or Flex Builder 2.0.1 yet.

Also Flex installs it's own JRE in the Flex install dir. No matter if
you choose the PlugIn version or the full builder. However according
to Adobe Flex will also run with the JRE 5.0 so you can remove the
Flex JRE if you like and redirect any path to a installed 5.0 one
(env vars on Windows etc).
However: I'm using Eclipse 3.2 and the Flex Eclipse PlugIn version
and JRE 5 and I have to say that Flex 2.0 is not fully compatible
with Eclipse 3.2+ (or JRE 5??).
For example after working for a while in Eclipse , code hinting and
typing support (keyword suggestions etc) stop working, especially
when having more than one project is opened. When that happens I have
to close and reopen Eclipse. Has anyone experienced similar problems?
I do hope that this got fixed in 2.0.1 and they made it more
compatible with Eclipse 3.2.x!

Flex Builder 2.0.1 plugin
If you already have Eclipse installed, just install the Eclipse
Plugin version. It's the same installer, just a different option
right at the beginning.
Also, 2.0.1 was released very very late last night, but then it turns
out that it wasn't, exactly. The Mac version seems to be out, but the
Windows version is missing in action.
Here's my parody of what I think happened:
1/4/2007 @ 11:01 CST
Adobe Employee 1: "Ok, Flex 2.0.1 has been launched! We can all go
home now!"
Adobe Employee 2: "Great! Let's test the download links, make sure
they're working."
...
Adobe Employee 2: "The Windows version doesn't seem to be downloading
properly. It's still the old one."
Adobe Employee 1: "What Windows version?"
Adobe Employee 3: (from across the room) "I thought you were writing
the Windows version."
Adobe Employee 1: "Since I got my MacBook Pro, I haven't been using
Windows. Why would I be writing the Windows version?"
Adobe Employee 2: "We *all* got MacBook Pro's. Has anyone been using
Windows?"
Yes, I'm certain that the entire Flex team was blinded by the
goodness of Apple's hardware and software that they clean forgot to
produce 2.0.1 for Windows :)

It took me a while to get Eclipse 3.2.1 up and installed the way I
want it (newbie to eclipse) and I would like to install the Flex
Builder plugin but I don't want to screw up my existing setup. I'm
running the installer and it looks like it will over write the Java
Runtime Environment.
This page has a install guide, "**To install Flex Builder 2 Eclipse
plug-in**:" but it doesn't mention anything about if you already
have Eclipse installed.
