Jobs has previously called out Adobe Flash, currently the dominant animation platform on the Web, for being "too slow to be useful" and Flash Lite, Adobe's versio n of Flash for mobile devices, as not advanced enough for the iPhone. So it's no surprise to hear Jobs called out Flash during Apple's Town Hall, but his language this time sounds a little over the top. Jobs reportedly called Adobe a lazy company, and said that when a Mac crashes it's usually because of Flash. Whether or not that's true, it's clear that Jobs is not a fan of Adobe's multimedia platform. The iPhone is routinely criticized for its inability to render Flash-based Web pages, videos and games, and early criticisms about the iPad also decry the lack of Flash compatibility on Apple's latest device.
