Adobe Flash: $10 x 6350 is a good argument for porting, isn't it?

Don't shoot the messenger:
FreeBSD is not useful as a desktop environment without the ability to
support Flash in a stable, well-performing fashion.
Running IE in Wine is not a solution.
Running another OS in vmware to simply browse the web is not a solution.

To say frankly, those people (including you and even plus me) are not so
numerous. We're still in the world where Windows dominates. So the
