Wow, can't believe Apple disabled hardware acceleration. They complain how Flash runs slow on Mac but when Flash has the opportunity to actually be better by utilizing something in the system, they turn it off. Now, if that ain't a straight move that purposely shows that they're killing off Flash for another reason, then I don't know what is.
I've never had a problem with Flash running slow but I'm also not running porn sites with a bunch of Flash ads playing in the background. Well, not for more than a minute.

Apparently no one here realizes that most of these UI/UX features are for idiot users, not pros.

Apple declares war on Adobe in OSX Lion
http://venturebeat.com/2011/07/2…Apple.. the biggest douchebag company in the world. I'm 100% with Adobe.. don't update ANYTHING.. let's see how many people upgrades to Lion considering their products don't work on it.
- That article is nonsense. Sensationalist *cough "blog journalists"mg33

LOL at anyone thinking that this scumbag move by Apple is not part of their strategy to hurt Adobe and have more arguments with the iZombie crowd on why Flash doesn't work good on OSX.
Interestingly just when Flash Player went all GPU and was completely platform agnostic as far as performance goes because it relies on graphics hardware instead of CPU.
I wish Adobe pulls all software from OSX.. Seriously.. so people can design with Word on it.
- I am sure Apple has a Photoshop equivalent ready in their basement, just like they had Intel OSX.raf
- a premiere/final cut comparison would be a closer equivalent, not exact but close then the last comment
mightyj - Yeah.. right.. they can't make Final Cut Pro X to have proper features, they'll make a Photoshop alternative and it doesn't matter.. whatever it is it's not standard.Boz

Adobe had access like any other developer subscribed to the Mac Developer Program to all the Lion developer previews and golden master.
Why they weren't ready / had an update ready to roll now it's something only they know.
- because Lion changed the way APIs work in Lion and again limited certain aspects to deliberately hurt Adobe more.Boz
- I mean Apple. This is what the scumbags do. They saw Flash Player was getting awesome on Macs and they can't have that.Boz
- It goes against their shitting and justifications on why to avoid Flash.Boz

I've had it installed for a week now. It's decent.
I really like how Spaces is now set up as part of Expose, making each full-screen application have its own individual space allowing gestures to flick through them. Kind of thinking this is good for a laptop with a trackpad, but without it I guess I'm gonna have to shellout for a trackpad. Can't see it Apple.
Generally it seems easy enough, but it has taken me a week to get used to that scrolling reversal thing.Now, what the fuck is happening with iTunes. Maybe we could make it a little slower and maybe even add some more crashes here and there if you're library has a movie and a few songs in. If you want to keep the hardware happy sort out the integration with the software. The iPhone will eventually get destroyed by Android if you don't.
