Slow Flash Getting You Down?

Here’s a tip for if you have an old G4 Mac.

As you know, for some reason Flash on MacOS is slower than Flash on anything else. And having a G4 certainly doesn’t help things. I dread going to sites with a heavy Flash interface. Frankly it’s a bit disappointing mixed in with a smidgen of depressing.

But hey, it’s Saturday. Time to get some work done. You set your awesome 12″ Powerbook (perhaps the greatest laptop Apple ever built) besides you and you head over to Hulu to catch up on Friday Night Lights/Chuck/House/Psych/Terminator while you work on work work. But oh no, the video are in Flash. And Flash is a dog.

Here’s my recommendation. Use Camino. Camino for whatever reason, handles Flash better than Safari and Firefox. Not a tiny bit better, but a lot better.

Give it a try, you’ll thank me.
