I hate Flash so much since it would overheat my MacBook Pro (2.4 C2D) all the time. Adobe just announced Flash player update 10.1 for Mac and it finally applis hardware acceleration for H.264 video. Badly my old MacBook Pro with NVIDIA 8600M isn’t supported. For my new iMac, Flash doesn’t harm that much, but it’s still worth trying. Quite promising, it reduced 50% of CPU usage with my 1GB ATI Radeon HD 5750. Actually if I play the same video in HTML5, it spends even less…

If your Mac came with NVIDIA GeForce 9400M or newer graphic chip, you must update your Flash player!
