Yup, heats up and hangs after 20 mins of video playback.

yes, but it's not as bad

So, it's not entirely Adobe's fault is it?

I'm certain that Apple has provided the APIs that would be necessary for Flash to use less than 100% CPU, the problem is that Adobe has decided it's not worth their time to make use of them.

Unless you're suggesting it's the user's fault for not running Windows like he should, I'm not sure how you're thinking it's not Adobe's fault.
