True, in general.

Unless your server is used to admin/manage other servers whose misbegotten application UIs require Flash to administer their applications. In which case you have to have Flash somewhere.

Sometimes you can dedicate a client machine to such purposes, but sometimes you need to use a server for other related applications and functions.

There is no escape from Flash until application vendors stop building their apps to require it.

It's the UNDEAD. I hate Flash with a passion but it's still unavoidable for certain applications.
