Adobe CS5 bricked my MacBook

As the aptly named thread I found (after the fact) states: CS5 Trial Installer Bricked my MacBook Pro

Nothing much to it, download the trial edition from Adobe (it takes forever), it will freeze mid-install, then you will have to force reboot the machine and presto… the little loading wheel on the white boot screen freezes. I tried it 3 times with the same outcome.

Solution:

Boot to install DVD
Run disk utility and repair permissions
Reboot
Run Adobe CS5 clean up tool
Reboot (needs to fix the right click hang)
Try again

Let me know if you have better luck than me. I tried this on a Macbook Pro (late 2009 unibody) with extra memory (from Apple).

No Flash on the iPad, my first problem

(image from modmyi.com) I came across an interesting article on modmyi that mentioned a prediction most sites will start making specific Apple friendly versions of their websites to circumnavigate the Adobe-less world Apple is creating. I have been very happy on the iPad so far and have not run into many problems until this weekend. One of my favorite BBG (browser based game), BattleDawn, required some extra attention. The admin released 4 relics and there was a mad dash to grab them. I soon became tethered to my Macbook and my iPad got some sick leave as it was all but useless. I will probably have to pick up an Android and Flash friendly tablet, like the WeTab, if I truly want to start going tablet only. Pity tho, Battledawn would have been great on the iPad (although the extensive use of mouseover features, a cornerstone of Flash interaction, would be a challenge).
