I built an entire suite of lead generation and call center applications for a mortgage company in Flash MX using AS 1around 5 years ago which was used on a daily basis by around 100+ employees. I'd say that took some serious programming and a real world app on a fairly large scale!
Ok, look, anyone can provide *one* example of anything, but one, or even a handful does not disprove the rule. People wrote accounting systems in Basic on S-100 computers in the 70's too. I wrote assembler in the 80's for commercial products. So anything is *possible*. But the fact is that the whole reason Flex exists is that Adobe couldnt get much real software development going with flash. And even now, though it is much better, there is still a dearth of comp sci educated flash programmers. And most people that have been programming in flash 4+ years dont have a comp sci/structured programming background. Again it doesnt mean there arent any. It just means there arent *many*. I am a member of a flash programming study group in New York City. And I havent yet met in our group a single other Flash programmer with a comp sci background. (at least I dont think so - If I have dont and you are him, please dont be insulted :) ).
