        Not having the ``*required*'' flash-NN that makes the latest animation 
or
        A/V apps is the biggest gripe I have relating to not being able to use
        the most stable OS around, FBSD.  Prev'ly when I've asked why sites 
can't
        simply use JAVA, I hear that Java is more difficult to use than flash.  
        I understand the basic of animation; that about it.  But isn't a better
        solution to get gnash up to speed rather than begging Adobe to port
        flash-9 or -10 for us?

        any thoughts on freeing ourselves from this addiction to flash-* ?
