Re: FLASH: MM's Flash 4 wish list

[Rusty Worden]

I concur. It is very important to my group at Cisco that we are able to reach as many different flavors of platforms as possible. Let's face it folks, Java just doesn't cut the mustard nearly as clean as Flash. Let's get with the program and get plugins/players for everyone. How else is Flash gonna become the standard? As I've said earlier. Even Squeak, another off the market platform being created by the Disney folks (get it? Mouse...Squeak...haha) has it's own player. Why can't MM make one (or two or fifteen) for Unix users?
