Hrm. From a purely pragmatic stance, I see your point. However, I cannot
forget that it wasn't long ago at all that Linux was excluded from that list
of "major platforms". I disliked closed formats like Flash before, and the
fact that Linux-on-Intel has crossed some arbitrary threshold which makes
Macromedia think it is worth supporting doesn't change my opinion of them.
