Heh, nice sarcasm... nah, I don't expect it to run on my Linux or Sun boxes.
But that's why I have a Win + Mac + Linux + UNIX + ... philosophy about my machines. Whatever comes out is bound to run on at least -one- of them...
I'm actually very pleased that Microsoft is willing to make it available for other-than-IE7 browsers at all. That's a huge shift -- they used to have enough clout that they could make things "IE-on-Windows-only" and people would form a line around the block to suck up to it.
Solaris, huh? Nah, I only run Solaris for xterm logins; I can't stand its GUI, truth be told.
I hate to see Adobe take it on the chin, but I do think Flash has lived its life and is due for replacement. I like the portability, but if MS does its job right on Silverlight, it'll be a good replacement for Flash.
Although I'll have to do something about supporting it on the Linux boxes... I use Linux as my main platform these days, and it's a little annoying to switch off just for videos.
I didn't find the GUI to be anything special, either. My initial reaction was two fold: why are they trying to make UNIX look exactly like Windows? and why the heck did they pick GNOME to do it (nothing against GNOME, but why not just customize KDE? it's closer in appearance anyway)?
