Steve Jobs is angry.....allegedly.

[noobvious]

Steve Jobs ripped into Google and Adobe at a town hall company meeting, according to anonymous sources.
The CEO reportedly had harsh words for Google--calling its 'don't be evil' mantra 'a load of crap'--as well as for Adobe. He also shared information about forthcoming product updates, noted MacRumors.
So what did he purportedly say, according to unconfirmed, second-hand reports compiled by Wired, Daring Fireball, and MacRumors?

TechCrunch wrote earlier that Jobs had said the iPad 'will be the most important thing I've ever done.'

Wow. No one even needs to call Apple pathetic anymore, their CEO just confirmed it....

That he calls it his greatest achievement shows just how few original ideas he has had....

Not to completely bash Apple, I love their iPod Touch (after I jailbroke it that is)

One would have thought buying his way into the replacement liver queue would have been the most important.

it is pretty crappy that there is still no support for flash.

Did you read his reasoning for that?

Sounds like they just didn't want to pay him to support it.

Hi there
while Money doesn't buy you happiness at least you can be Miserable in Comfort.

So I'm sure Mr Jobs isn't really suffering.

They are lazy, Jobs says. They have all this potential to do interesting things but they just refuse to do it

Can't really fault him there. x64 Adobe Flash springs to mind...

Very very crappy. I don't know how Apple fail to realise that 75% of online game, services uses Flash.

I would like to see more companies take a stand against flash. I think its a buggy, security risk, piece of rubbish software, that i wish would just go away.

So kudos to apple for not using it.

Totally agree. Its really crap. You know i've tried to program Flash? It lacks stuff big time. Dont know an alternative tho, does someone? They also dont make support for 64-bit Ubuntu, or 64-bit Opera. LOL

Besides FF and it's FlashBlock plus addon, in other browsers, I wish I could block 97% of flash based related material anyway....

Funnily enough, I installed Flash for Windows, then Flash for Opera, then Flash for IE8. So when I uninstalled it and reinstalled the newest version, who knows what goes where? It all works though. As for 64-bit Ubuntu, I think its supported.

x64 beta Flash is available for some Linux distros.

Nope, i had to get a workaround, a shell script made by some random guy. Its beta, and does not work on my OS.
