Chrome OS will have built-in Flash Player, but still a work in progress

Although we've already seen Flash in action on Chrome OS, Adobe has come out and officially announced Flash Player for Google's newest operating system and deemed it a “work in progress.” If you're expecting the kind of desktop performance you get with the latest hardware accelerated builds of Flash Player, I'm afraid you're going to be a little disappointed — video playback performance certainly seems a little lacking. However, Adobe is committed to improving it, as “video performance in particular is the primary area for improvement,” with Adobe working directly with Google engineers in an effort to enable video acceleration.

Like the Chrome browser, Adobe's directly integrating Flash into Chrome OS, meaning that Flash will auto-update and should, combined with the robustness of the underlying Linux kernel, make Chrome OS a very secure computing platform indeed.Chrome OS will have built-in Flash Player, but still a work in progress
