A Peace Plan To End the Flash-On-iPhone Fight

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the why-can't-we-all-just-get-along dept.

GMGruman writes "As the pro- and anti-Flash camps have hardened their positions, the editors at InfoWorld have come up with a four-point peace plan that would allow Flash on the iPhone while addressing Apple's very real concerns over performance, stability, and security. Readers can vote and comment on the peace plan, which InfoWorld hopes will result in serious talks between Apple and Adobe."

    The latest Mac OS is just $30 and has all of the development tools and software included with it. If you consider that to "seriously bring up the price" then I'm afraid I have to laugh and point at you while disregarding any further points you're trying to make. Especially so since the equivalent software from Microsoft would easily cost a few hundred dollars. How much is a Visual Studio license going for these days? Or Windows itself, for that matter?

    And, as others have already pointed out far more eloquently, you can develop for Mac on other platforms as well.
