    "If you are betting your company's future on proprietary plug-in such as Flash, it's your problem."
    i actually kind of agree with you here. moving forward, businesses and developers alike *should* consider this if this is an important platform for them. however, you're neglecting the fact that the flash plugin is the most ubiquitous browser plug-in technology in existance, perhaps even surpassing java. safari on the mac even supports it - always has. so everyone should just jump ship because there's a new popular platform on the market that isn't supporting an ever-popular technology. again COSTLY implications on businesses and developers everywhere. many careers invested in this technology.

    what if apple decided all of a sudden that their machines wouldn't support any of the adobe creative suite or any application built on carbon. i believe the creative suite is built on carbon, not cocoa, so this is a valid argument. what would you do then? adapt or die bitches?
