See also: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Tamarin <http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Tamarin> Remember the player has a long history and download size has always been a priority. It wouldn't make sense to build one VM on top of another (relatively heavy) one. I've no idea how the poster got this idea.
