hoping Adobe raise prices on their crapware!

Ummm... because Flash is a massive CPU hog and buggy as hell on the Mac
side? And it never gets any better? <http://adobegripes.tumblr.com/>

It has never hurt my computer and when the rare occasion comes up
when I actually am interested enough to watch a Flash thing, I am
happy to let it take up of my CPU attention. Buggy, 100%, I

The whole world is buggy.
