![]() ![]() Actually, Flash has caused as many computer failures as the not-so-friendly hackers deciding you no longer need this computer. Flash has always, and by always I most certainly mean always, been flawed and very buggy. Also, Flash was and has been dead LONG before HTML5 was around. So either you're really moronic or you have no idea what you are talking about. Even if you are using this processor on a home-built rig, you are still using Apple's go-to processor and in some morbid way, there must be a reason why you both thought to choose this particular processor (even though I already know why you would choose this processor). You are sitting here bashing Apple and trolling other participants on this thread but your name is Xeon64 - clearly, you are an Apple supporter seeing as you are either using or have used Apple's go-to processor for their Mac Pro lines. If Adobe had not been making an Apple version all along, do you think they would start one now? Sure, the iDiots would complain publically for about a year, but IMO Adobe would be better served to drop the mac version and move the resources to Linux. The problem isnt risk or payoff, Adobe has a pre-positioned and vocal userbase requesting this and case studies to follow, the problem is change. Frankly every reason expressed here NOT to release a linux version has been shot down as it comes from a lack of understanding of linux, and there has been plenty of closed source software (take steam and skype for example) which has been released on linux and done well, so its not like its uncharted territory. Nobody is saying you have to switch, were just saying wed like to. These users often Adobe users, and there is an overwhelming outcry to Adobe to make software compatible with their chosen OS which continues to be ignored. The userbase of Ubuntu alone on desktop is nearly that of Mac now, and Apple hasnt been the preferred graphics platform in most design studios for at least a decade. Hell, Apple gave up making its own OS long ago and basically just skins and locks linux now. The fact is the linux userbase is rapidly growing, while Windows 8 has been met with fair to poor results, apple has been in its death spiral for some time now, and linux has already cornered the server and mobile world. ![]() ![]() Frankly, everyone who actually overcomes their xenophobia and tries it does, but thats not an issue. Whats worse, there are many good methods of running windows/mac programs under linux which require nothing from Adobe, and they worked fine in the past, but now with CC you dont have a set release which can be accomidated by these methods. You have a large userbase here which would REALLY like to migrate to Linux, or has and takes rediculous measures just to accomidate Adobe. The issue is that you have an actually stable OS which is quickly approaching the same user base on desktops that mac has, without the aid of massive global advertising, physical stores, and pre-loaded at purchase based sales (ok, its started, but not like with mac/win), yet Adobe still doesnt support it. Im not clear on your point, nor what is immature about linux, nor even how this pertains to the discussion. Somali Pirate here taking a vacation from hard and sometimes very dangerous work at sea. People have waited for Linux to mature for so long that another 25 years shouldn't be a problem for these users. How soon do you want this to change? It is pretty easy to change this to satisfy you. If this doesn't change soon, I will start looking for alternatives and cancel my subscription. ![]()
