Is there any purpose for Generator that a little ASP and
actionscript can't cover? The only thing I've seen that isn't
possible without generator is the dynamic GIF/JPEG
output, but even this is possible with a cheap ASP
component (or probably a freeware bean if you're using JSP).

I guess there's also the unique situation that you need to
import a jpeg into an SWF dynamically, but "load movie"
is almost as good in most situations.

So are there any other reasons?
