Microsoft Prefers Flash To Silverlight

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft still has not adopted Silverlight, and uses Flash all over its websites. 'Despite all the controversy over Microsoft using Silverlight to take over the rich internet market from Adobe Flash, the software giant seems to be not even trying. In fact, even most Microsoft web sites are using Flash instead of Silverlight.'"

Me.

Both should be taken out into a dark, dimly light corridor, shot, then buried.

Both are a blot on the landscape of the websites.

Both fail to add any real value to sites that can not be done using other methods - most of which don't need to install more junk to your PC...

(Though to be brutally honest: just bring back text based websites capable of working in lynx and I'll be happy - sod all the fancy stuff. I use the web to get information not to be blinded by how good (or crap) some designer is - show me the information I want and I'm happy)
