You'll be wearing a smartwatch (though perhaps not an Apple Watch) in a few years.

Steve Jobs issues open letter on Flash

How Steve Jobs knows Flash is the number one cause of crashes on Macs

Steve Jobs said, "We also know first hand that Flash is the number one reason Macs crash."

How does he know?

He knows because on Macs, when an app crashes, the Crash Reporter window comes up and lets you send the technical details of the crash to Apple. They've undoubtedly received millions upon millions of these crash reports - that's how they know what code caused the crash for each one.

From my own experience, I've been monitoring the causes of the crashes in the Problem Details section of the crash report - it's almost always some Flash code - which I know from looking at the list of subroutines in the backtrace of the crashing thread (and I'm usually using the browser watching video when crashes occur - Flash video. )
