Nothing requires you to update your 3gs to iOS5 - but you can if you want to. As opposed to an update not being available at all... Aside from providing an upgrade path, is Apple also suppose to hold back features that highlight their new models in an effort to prevent performance issues in older models?

Hint: get your facts right otherwise you just look stupid, the XBox division has been turning a profit for years. In fact the year to June 08 netted almost 1/2 a billion dollars in profit for that year alone and has been turning a healthy profit ever since. So yes it *is* a phenomenal success.

Recent profit yes: But $10B loss + $4B profit still leaves them $6B in the hole...

She voted for the healthcare bill despite knowing that 67% of her constituents opposed it. She's no "representative." Just a political whackjob

...and yet she was reelected by those same constituents, so apparently they think she represented them well enough.

Flash runs well on Windows. I'm just going to assume that many of the people here don't use Macs so don't really understand how poorly flash runs on OS X.

This is a typical flash game on facebook (a typical use-case for an iPhone/iPad user if flash was available) . That's 70% of CPU for a single flash instance.
