I think filesize would be an issue here, and the user
would still need to download a plugin.

Incidentally, why is Flash an issue? I know it binary
only and all that, but it really does provide
something that little else will now. I could
understand there being an issue if it was (a)
proprietary, (b) not cross platform and (c) cost
money, but until SVG becomes a viable solution, there
is no real option. Also, who is this for? If it is for
a typically Windows orientated audience, could this
make it more acceptable?
