apologies for the delayed response. You are assuming that everyone who wants to watch a Flash movie is at the edge of motion graphics, with cash to burn on perpetual hardware investment.
In fact, there are students, and yes, unemployed people. (we are in a depressed economy, you know) Their ppcs work just fine for them, and Adobe is prodding them to shell out thousands of dollars every few years, or beat it.
That is rather heartless. Then there are those of us who are moving on to other careers, that don't pay so well, but are more satisfying. We continue to do a bit of work, but it simply would not make sense to buy the newest and greatest when what we have is in fine working order.
Maybe Adobe doesn't mean to be evil, but they could at least wait until the economy is healthy before pulling what could only be called, in this economy, a bullying tactic.
Apple did an architecture shift for better performance, managed a "universal" operating environment for 5 or 6 years, finally decides it's time to move on, and developers do the same...and this makes them evil?
Sheesh.
