| Quite many (most) operating systems that don't have flash support, yes,
you

|
| Even if GNU/Linux x86 has a flash plugin, it do not have the same features
as

well
| and many times don't work at all.
|
|
| With other words, flash suxx for web design if you want people to be able
to

| Server side scripting that generates w3c valid output is the only that is

oh don't go bothering him with the details. he just likes bitching and
thinking that HE is the be-all-end-all. that leaves us to wonder, were that
true, why he posts to any of these groups [save alt.2600] except to do just
that - bitch and moan, then boast.

did you see his sophomoric post the other day? he hadn't a clue about what
premultiplied alpha representation was in graphics. that's shit right out of
graphical programming 101. not to mention he couldn't even google for an
explanation. oh well, he is still gawd in his own small mind.

cheers
