    Good work. Thanks for opening my eyes. Seems this sort of thing isn't just limited to political reporting.



    Actually, the issue is that since Flash is shipped with Mac OS, those vulnerabilities are counted as PART of Mac OS and those numbers are used against Windows/Linux for vulnerabilities stats.



    So here, the article is about this : stats.

    Well, some of us *actually* use Adobe products for a living. In my case mostly Dreamweaver and hard-to-live-without, Photoshop. This year I made a Flash microsite for a client. Actually, it has everything that's wrong with Flash.
