I don’t understand why any company would use flash on their web site. By doing so they are eliminating a significant % of their potential customers, me for one as I do most of my shopping on my iPhone.

“That means Firefox users will not be able to turn on the plug-in to access Flash content — they’ll have to seek out another browser if they need to use Flash.”

I’m getting a pop-up option bar near the top of the page for allowing AF or not.

Flash is just plain crappy code. It reminds me of the old Windows ME edition. Horrible.

Adobe Flash hits another wall -- Is this finally the end of Flash?? ... PING!

You can find all the Windows Ping list threads with FR search: just search on keyword "windowspinglist".

The end? I hope so!!

Unfortunately, our Enterprise system chose to use Flex for one of our apps.
