Who will win ???? Flex VS Silver Light
-
Adobe's Flex has been an important and the only better tool available for creating interactive sites. But now with Microsoft jumped in with Silver Light that claims to be compatible with major OS and Web Browsers, thousands of MS Lover quickly migrating to it, will Microsoft steal share of Adobe's Flex from the Market ??? Will Adobe's Flex face the same end as Netscape's Navigator did :doh: [I really say it was unfair with them to be swept out by Microsoft unfairly :(( ]

If they didnt, we would be stuck with a sub par IE and Netscape Navigator.

Probably not the end user. :)

Unfortunately. The poor end user is going to be fleeced by the ISP for the hefty feast of bandwidth and heck of costly downloads. :rolleyes:

Where is the need? I don't see a whole lot of Flex out there. Some of the Flex stuff out there is really just "I could have done this in Flash but I can't be arsed."

That's easy: they both SUCK, so they should lose to standard HTML + CSS + javascript.

Ah, so i assume you invented a way to stream and play hd content using only html and css and javascript?
> you invented Yep, that's what you do, to activate a stream anyway.. whether 3rd party ActiveX, Java or .NET tool with trust ideas in mind. Silverlight is going the same way, cross-platform singing story, and it is all looking like a new y-HTML and y-JavaScript variant. Mark-up is not a bad thing at all, but all that bloated junk behind? I couldn't agree more that they absolutely suck, even on latest iteration. Makes you wonder where that productivity is in that bug-lake monster. Look at the SilverLight 2.0 beta and their new blueprint apps, don't forget they are developing this joke for the past 4 years. Is that what you've been waiting for? I get shocked with each and every demo how hungry it is and little value it provides frankly for deployment today. Also, it still takes 200MB for some silly graphics (OT, the installer doesn't paint properly), it is idiotic in animation and CPU hammering, and for what? You don't even get rewarded for an intuitive UI. But they're optimising it while refusing to accept it is a pathetic effort in Javatizing the GPU, and I cannot believe people at MS are actually paid to release that crp, and for such a long time. There aren't many customer-idiots you can sell the state of that tech either, they sense and find the 'interactivity-wow' hangs, even if you have early adopter written on a proud forehead. It doesn't scale well, like WinForms doesn't and sure wasn't made for vector based graphics. It's a classic MS graphics screw up so far (Win32, MFC, WTL, OGL abort, GDI+, DirectShow, DirectX cipher-programming), and this one is special as the outline is good but it beats them all by taking years to complete, to be stable, usable and less bloated than the most heavy Java-like framework today (WebLogic, Swing, etc). Yet it manages to spend most money in hype and marketing.. Don't get me wrong, it has great ideas and cuts code dramatically, but it is the worst layering OO/runtime/markup/ implementation choice ever seen in history of abusing the computer. And it shows, in bloat and complexity, both at run- and compile time (and you can't chose either or). You can only hope it will get better, or that they'll realise it needs some serious work and sacking of managers over there for not delivering anything efficient, stable and quicker than the timeframe it took to build Vista and Server 2008. And if you say 'just you wait', all yours.. I hope someone else than MS or Adobe does a proper job out there and delivers a thin media runtime. Googl
