In other words, he’s saying that despite the attacks by Apple and HTML5, the state of the Flash ecosystem is strong.
A question the from the audience asked about the battery life issues with Flash on the Mac. Narayen would only says that if they have access to hardware acceleration, Flash is “as efficient in any tech in the world.”
Battelle asked if that meant Adobe still doesn’t have access to Mac graphics hardware. Narayen noted that it’s in beta testing. And he stated again, that when they have hardware acceleration access, Flash ranks up there with any other tech.
