I would prefer if FLASH were retained. If it works, don't break it?

I've read and heard many of the araguments why you/we/they/co have to get rid of Flash. I am still not happy.

I think, if it works, don't break it, improve it. Surely the security issues can be worked-around. And it does coincidentally, mean that people all over the "developing-world" will no longer be able, at all, by any user-friendly-means, be able to watch FLASH-Enabled content on their old XP computers. Yes, a great many people in the developing-world/3rd-world as it was called still use XP. Vista and Win7 will struggle to accomodate the changes, though they are just about able to handle HTML 5.0. (The other way of continuing to view streamed content). "Try Upgrading your browser" is the ubiquitous call to us all and sundry.

I guess LINUX/Unix then is the solution, as its' development cycle of new releases makes Microsoft™ look strictly restricted.

I have my SUSE Linux Pro ready. I've been putting it off a while. Personally, I think the whole business of doing away with FLASH for streamed content is completely dubious. That 17% of the world still using the old platforms/OS have their reasons.

Maybe people are entitled to be able to watch the news/weather forecast for their region with the least impediment. I'd keep it..
