Millward Brown, commissioned by Adobe, did the survey just this past June, it seems silly the product most closely competing with the Flash Player is Silverlight and it's not included in the comparison. And if someone at Adobe is listening, this is important since this page is linked to from some Creative Suite 4 promo pages on the site, for example, the page touting Illustrator's Flash player capabilities: http://www.adobe. <http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator/?promoid=BPDEG> com/products/illustrator/?promoid=BPDEG Anyway, just a mild rant for the day. :) Maybe someone can pass this on to the right folks at Adobe.
