nice rundown. love the dog slide and apple slide in particular. giving developers a choice is a great way to talk about flash. the pro/con sides just want to fight their side....i don't care; i want my content to be accessible and crawlable, etc. all of these technologies have their place, Java, XML, Flash.....when/where they'll find it, idk. I think ActionScript is going to explode following the JavaScript revolution. Interactive will be mainstream and its so close JavaScript. anyways. my 2 cents. nicely done.
