[cfaussie] Re: recommendation
Wow, a new subject, and one that won't turn into a bun fight I hope :-) First thing, have you thought about posting this also on http://groups.google.com.au/group/flashaussie Second thing, I hope you know that shockwave does not mean JUST Flash. Shockwave meaning Director .dcr, and Flash being .swf in my understanding. Anyway yes, please see http://www.cleverbits.com/ & http://www.nectarine.com.au/ as fine examples.

[cfaussie] Re: Microsoft Uses Flash!!!
I cannot accept that, what you have written, but since we are looking at history, I look for answers as well, and for past history tells me so, VHS versus BetaMax, Blu-Ray versus HD-DVD. At the moment Flash is a good platform, and widely used, Browser wise, you can go to a customer and have some confidence that the customer will not turn around and say Flash is not going to work as not enough people have it. So tomorrow as you say let us speculate that Silverlight improves, but Flash improves more, it would still come down to the confidence in the customer primarily. (Of course if Flash turns nasty then even if the customer has confidence in the numbers the developer may want to look elsewhere. But I digress.) So what could change that confidence in the customer, regards numbers? Microsoft boots the Flash player out of future versions of Windows, whatever form that takes, in favour of Silverlight. Microsoft wouldn't do that would they? That wouldn't be a level playing field would it? They wouldn't make life harder for end users just to win this war would they? That wouldn't be monopolistic would it? What does history tell me? Anyway just my 0.02 cents worth.

[cfaussie] Re: Microsoft Uses Flash!!!
I am sorry to burst your bubble, but Microsoft has been using Flash in certain places for ages, pre Silverlight. The people at end of doing serious stuff need to :-) On May 14, 12:29 pm, "Owen West" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Check this out... > > http://www.worldwidetelescope.org > > Errr...Silverlight?
