I love how mac fans just eat up everything Jobs says. Flash isn't a buggy product.

Flash works well, adobe knows developers makes a product, so the product is so easy and fast to develop. Adobe makes money getting conversions of their private player to plataforms. So not only makes more money, even more reasons to buy their ide for develop because is widely extended. Apple know that and dont wish play the game. The html5 is a real altternative with engine games and is largue used, like in eyeOs or much cloud email providers.

@SwordWatchman You are very right, people are like cows.

However, the issue (in reality) is not that Flash is buggy (which it isn't), it's that flash is not keeping up with other developments, HTML5 is A LOT faster than flash, you would not be able to run Quake 2 that smoothly on Flash, so...... HTML5 is the way to go at the moment and Flash isn't........ but like i said, at the moment (but also in the foreseeable future).

I don't know maybe I have been lucky or something but I have honestly only had Flash cause problems 2 or 3 times in my life time. Like I said maybe I am lucky but I have yet to hear customers of mine complaint about flash player. Sometimes I feel that most people just go with what the media or these so called experts say so they then start to believe that flash player is a bad thing even if they have not personally had issues. Its like some mass mind control to make you believe anything.

Just google HTML5 demos and see that they are like Flash for 10 years ago, even worse on IDevices. The reason the 3D-demo run ok is the WebGL and that doesn't solve common web problems. It's not like implementing HTML5 support in a browser and everything works. Look forward to years of problems before reaching up to level of Flash.

@shorty1k it actually is for mac's
