What I don't understand is why is Laszlo and Flex better than using
Flash? Flash lets you lay things out graphically. Flex and Laszlo
are text descriptions that are compiled into flash. To me, it is
easier to layout a screen than to try to describe it in text.
OpenLaszlo is a powerful framework for developing applications using
the SWF format. My impression was that it is a robust framework that
allows the developer to focus on their web app logic and let the
Laszlo framework handle the presentation.
Take a look at their ten minute demo (which is quite good) for more
info:

It seemed to me that the philosophy of the Laszlo people at their
presentation was this: web app developers spend most of their time
writing code and not much time in the Flash GUI and most of them have
a preferred text editor. Their framework takes care of a lot of the
transition animation and other niceties that the developer might want
so it is pretty straightforward to just code these things in.
