| Although Adobe has plans to release Flash 9 for Linux soon, this
| software package should be examined. Just consider for a minute that
| GNU Gnash has an innumerable amount of nice features and properties. An
| inexhaustive list of them is provided below:
|
| * sound is off by default with the web browser plugin;
| * one can pause and restart the movie from within the browser plugin;
| * the browser plugin saves the movies to /tmp, meaning that one
| can easily download and save the files without digging around in HTML;
| * the source code is based upon portable open source libraries,
| which means that the project can be compiled and ran on any architecturet
| that supports the code (e.g., AMD64, PPC, ia64, SPARC, etc.);
