So this web client is written in what ... Java? ;-) And that's supposed to be better than .Net / Mono somehow? ;-)Java runs on more platforms than .net. Isn't that akin to saying "we do it that way because that's the way its always been done!"
No! If you do care about which platform people can connect from, then platform availability should be a consideration, regardless of how you used to do it. I honestly don't understand where you are coming from here.
A web client would be a step forward for VMware management there is no doubt about that but I don't see why Java being used more frequently makes something a superior product.
Because people using non-Windows platform could use it. So you go from one to 3 or 4 platforms. I agree though that a pure browser interface is even better (more platforms yet!).
Does that mean Flash > HTML 5?
The other way around as far as I am concerned. Newer version of Android do not support flash, I believe iphone no longer do flash either, heck, and Adobe said the last version of Flash they have release for Linux is the last one ever (although, they had said that before).
