Well, he’s still hiking and it isn’t in Adobe’s direction.

Amazon keeps being cute in their description of sales – What does this even mean? Are they selling like hotcakes at my local Legion pancake breakfast or like pancakes at iHop?
Come on Amazon, cough up some numbers already.

1) With their big apps (Photoshop, etc), they held way back and didn’t update the apps for OSX native code. They were one of the longest holdouts.
2) They never optimized Flash for the Mac. Flash on the Mac is unlike Flash on Windows, it’s a total resource hog.
3) Related to #2 – Here three years after the iPhone was introduced, Adobe still doesn’t have a Flash player for mobile that isn’t a battery killer or as robust as the desktop.
There’s very good reasons Apple doesn’t get along with Adobe – Adobe probably wouldn’t still exist if Apple hadn’t adopted Postscript for desktop publishing.

A pile of young graphics people have invested their careers in learning Flash and other Adobe products, now find themselves in the lurch. Is the browser experience on the ipad and iphone better with no Flash? Couldn’t there be a compromise, pls? Inquiring minds want to know.
