Flash is a poor example because the majority of consumer PCs sold already include a reasonably recent version of Flash. This is why I'm still building adgames in Flash when I'd much rather use Unity3d. Unity adds the friction of a plugin install, whereas Flash is likely already installed.
Similarly, getting people to install Chrome Frame adds some friction (though how much depends on how the install is streamlined).
- thenduks 16y agoI'm not sure I'm with you here. A lot of offices have really old computers purchased around the time of Windows XP SP1 and the version of flash shipped on those will leave quite a lot to be desired. So maybe I should have said it's like saying IE (in those types of settings, anyway) doesn't support new flash games because they don't have the right version of the plugin :)
