Re: Adobe introduces Flash Player 10 beta
Thanks for Not Telling Us all of the sneaky things Adobe has snuck into this release. I really enjoy all of the talking pop up ads and the force upgrades and fact that Adobe has only one plugin so that every browser can be polluted by their talking banner ad crap and MAC users are not allowed to choose which browser can accept flash content and which can not AND Safari doesnt have the capability to turn it off.........Flash is Evil and given that apple is ighting with Adobe, I'm very surprised that Apple have not done more to enable Mac Users to disable all of the Adobe Flash crap they dont want. Flash on Mac is an all or nothing deal, a deal with the devil. DOn't upgrade to 10. Walk away.

Re: Adobe introduces Flash Player 10 beta
I wonder if any version will advertise itself as NOT being the crashiest piece of software on my machine.

Re: Adobe introduces Flash Player 10 beta

Adobe needs to make the Mac Flash plugin A)less buggy and B)not run
like a slug
more than anything. Do regular end-users, a.k.a. most of the people using the plug-in, really care about the whiz-bang special effects, or do they care about the fact that Flash runs significantly slower than the Windows version and sometimes crashes their browser?

Back to the beta...I can play YouTube videos with it, but I can't get YouTube's player to stop playing or otherwise respond after I do that, so for now I'm reverting back to 9.

Re: Adobe introduces Flash Player 10 beta
Why does anyone need another version of Flash. Performance only matters if you want faster, louder, whiz bang and more intrusive talking pop-up ads.

Re: Adobe introduces Flash Player 10 beta
Hmm offload flash processing to the GPU? THat sounds like a great idea. Watch it only be in the windows version :(
