OK, I'll bite.
I can't look at Flash on my computer at home because Macromedia don't
make Flash for the OS/ architecture I'm using.
If Flash was free software, there'd be a way to get it to work on my
computer. It isn't, so there isn't. Even attempting to get it to work
probably breaks some rule/ law or other.
So, soap boxes and lectures aside, what do you suggest? Might you see
now why not everyone likes Flash all the time, and that disliking it
might not be just because of <insert awful ad here>?
Of course, if we all used the same OS, browser and software stack, it'd
be much easier, and Tim B-L wouldn't have needed to invent the Web.
Smile and regards
