kpl,
The article was taken down LONG before the G5 was announced. CNet even wrote an article about Adobe's article. By the way, the file name for Adobe's article was pcpreferred.html. I think that says it all right there.
It is a known problem (check Macromedia's forums and Tech Notes) that OS9 can't handle most semi-complex Flash movies. (Meaning animating large vectors or bitmaps. Semi-large shape tweens lag very badly on OS9.) OSX handles it much better due to Apple fixing memory issues OS9 has, but it still can't get it as smooth as a PC does.
Every single person I know who runs XP rarely has a problem. It was a big deal when my computer crashed at work (which was the first time EVER, which I mentioned earlier.) If your computer is crashing all the time, I'm sorry to say it's most likely due to problems created by a user who isn't knowledgeable enough to realize what he/she did wrong.
