Anything less is just not acceptable. Then you have a few options: 1. use windows 2. use linux 3. use solaris 4. buy Adobe The latter simply does not support native FreeBSD. But I agree with you: Flash is not always shit or not needed. Quite a few times it gives somthing extra that makes the web more attractive.
