There are lots of reasons which are probably covered in the links others suggested, but it depends on your project and resources too. I chose Flex over Ajax also to avoid the cross-browser issues (Ajax = JavaScript = lots of cross browser compatibility issues and workarounds). Of course you still need the Flash Plugin, but it's easier to get someone to install or upgrade a plugin than to switch or update a browser. Personally I also found Flex easier to learn than Ajax techniques, although that probably depends on your comfort level with JavaScript vs ActionScript. The FlexBuilder IDE helps the learning curve too. I think you will find that even with all the Ajax libraries out there, Flex is still a more rapid UI development option than Ajax. -Rachel
