From the [www.technewsworld.com] they got some interesting debate among Flash ( FlashLite ) and Silverlight evangelist whether they should start considering to embrace the new platform Silverlight. Not everyone is equally excited, though. Devoted Adobe users like Noel Green, creative director of Park East, is one of many with no plans to leave Flash behind.

“Flash just works,” Green added, citing its ability to function flawlessly on any computer and deliver a consistent display across various browser platforms.

Even an unswayable Silverlight supporter like Liberty knows Microsoft has a tough task in convincing veteran designers to change their minds.

“Will they put down their tools, walk away from their desks, and say, ‘Let’s go to Silverlight?’” he asked. “I know we have the best developer tools on the planet, [but] we would have to really show a tremendous value proposition to them.”

The full Silverlight release is expected later this year.
