iPhone kills Flash dead

Here’s an interesting link to understanding why running flash on iPhone sucks.

For all you stupid people complaining about Flash support on iPhone. The number one reason is that Flash is a performance pig. You may not feel it with an octocore Intel Mac, or whatever the latest is for Windows, but it cripples older computers like no ones business. On my PPC Macs, the performance meter is spiked. On my PC in the lab at work, a four year old Dell, it spikes the task manager. Flash is just the suck.

Hopefully, once everyone has iPhone, Flash will go the way of RealMedia — a dinosaur in the days of mammals. Suck it Adobe!
