I'm curious to see the lies.

Let's start here... they rebranded KHTML from KDE... they didn't CREATE anything... they expanded on an Open Source project by developing a fork of their own in private... frankly, KDE should have sued them for the NUMEROUS license violations and shady practices they used to STEAL the KHTML project away from them. So, Jobs can **** himself for this statement.

Don't care, really. Has no bearing on the point at hand.

Is ANYONE dumb enough to believe this? It isn't even close to true and won't be for quite awhile.

Actually, it's fairly accurate. Almost all sites have a flash degrading method which usually degrades to H264. The entire YouTube app goes this route. Porn sites have this method.
But I'm glad all you have is a "no it isn't, and won't be". Instead of, you know, examples.

I have no specific data on this... but I have never seen this to be the case... and I'm not buying it sight unseen without ACTUAL data from an independent source.

I know from experience, but I too would like an independent source. Having said that, I really don't think it matters. Adobe's flash is horrendous. It's as bad as their installers and CS4 on a Mac.

Here he is right, but I for one would rather not buy into a product line that won't have fully functional access to content until that day arrives. To each his own I guess... but don't try to lie to me Jobs.
|
So, he's lied a grand total of zero times. He was, perhaps, not fully truthful in the KDE webkit thing, but I don't count a single "lie".

If you're going to start saying Jobs is lying for exaggerating, I'm going to have to say you are too since this statement is reeruned. Yes, Google has contributed but I would bet a large sum they are not responsible for the "majority of progress Webkit has made".
