Microsoft Silverlight may wind up being the "Flash Killer", I do like the fact that to program Silverlight, you can use C#, instead of having to learn ActionScript to do Adobe Flex apps.

What? No Assembly?

PAL was PDP Assembly Language for the Digital PDP computers. I did a little PAL8 programming in the '70s as a teen.
