I've spent the last hour reading about users with the problems, and it's not just a few, and Flash seems to be a problem on more than just the 27" Apple hardware.

Yes, it is a few. By definition, the Internet amplifies the level of complaints about a service, good, or product. Is it a major, widespread problem? Possible, but unlikely. Further, your first thread only mentions the 27'' model, and your second thread is also about the 27'' model. I see no mentions of the 24'' iMac suffering problems, nor past iMacs suffering problems.

As for Flash, Adobe's port of Flash to OS X is one of the worst codebases in use today. It desperately needs an optimized rewrite. Won't happen though. Speaking of cross-platform Flash...

Even my phone can play Flash correctly.

Then your phone is one of a very few select models. The iPhone, the Android platform, and the Blackberry all lack Flash. This will change when 10.1 comes out, but as we type, Flash does not run on 99.5% of the phones on the market. And a good thing, too: it'd suck battery life like a Democrat slush fund.
