As long as they use Flex, they would still be using AVM2. What I mean is that Flash Player's popularity and install base is what made= it viable for Flex to be written and deployed to it. If the new VM is also= so universally well received, so popular, and installed everywhere that en= terprises actively wish to repurpose it for applications, then I will be fi= rst in line to rewrite Flex.
