Although JavaFX 1.0 runs on the Mac, keep in mind that the browser plugin on this platform is not new, but rather is the same problematic plugin that has been around for years – it has repainting bugs, memory leaks, thread leaks, the security dialog handling is broken, it blocks the browser during application loading, etc. These are the very problems that motivated the new browser plugin, mentioned in my previous post. The new browser plugin is in the pipeline for delivery on Mac, and it’s only a matter of time until you’ll see it in an Apple software update. Until then, however, please reserve your final judgments. There’s no magic. Until the new software is installed on your system, it’s not reasonable to expect corrections to the user-experience.
