    10.2 was a big update. It had a lot of performance enhancements including hardware acceleration. 10.3 is mostly security and stability, which most people don't really care about and certainly won't notice.

    Apparently with all of the security fixes in 10.3 they didn't fix the one Vupen found.

    Flash has a control panel ever since I started using it.

    Edit: Didn't see the new settings manager.

    Heh, unless you had one of those systems that would bluescreen when playing flash movies in fullscreen mode with hardware acceleration turned on. Looks like with the newest nVidia video drivers and Flash 10.3 the problem has now been solved. Knock on wood...
