This boggles the mind. If they would just implement the renderer on top of OpenGL then they would get cross-platform hardware acceleration, even on mobile devices since a lot of them have OGL support these days. Considering that they still argue that they have a stable and optimized product, I'm forced to conclude that Adobe's staff are somewhat technically incompetent or that their Flash code base has a huge amount of technical debt.
