100 $ is a lot of money...you can probably handle flash just for FedEx I bet.

Though you're probably right. They'll have an updated version asap.

Literally not worth the time or loss in trust. I don't use anything closed source on most of my machines (without proper sandingboxing).

The main machine I have with closed source software gets only one credit card, with a low limit and that is for steam.

I would be setting up VM for this. More likely I would just call and get what I need or switch carriers.

You know credit cards have 0 liability so it actually wouldnt matter if it had high limit? I never got the "i wont give my card" argument.
That is why I used one credit card on the machine.

I didn't use a second. I don't want to deal with the hassle. I don't want to have someone steal tiny amounts of money.

Perhaps, I have other things than financials that are sensitive on my machines.

$100 would be enough for me to clone a virtual machine, at least.

I live less than 2 miles from a FedEx ground hub. I would rather walk the 30 minutes in both directions before enabling Flash for FedEx. WTF are they thinking? Pay that money to a developer to fix the problem instead of to your customers to limp along for a few more months.

They probably went with the cheap developer, who promised it to be done by Christmas... now they hired a different agency to do it, meanwhile...
