Another effect of Sinofsky's departure from Microsoft.
This was the topic of a very heated debate internally 4 years ago, allowing the whitelist itself was a massive cave-in by Sinofsky who had set a fairly hard line against all plugins.
I'm hoping all of the jaded Windows decision makers who so adamantly wanted to ban Flash have been sufficiently spanked.
That said, I do wonder how well Flash will work on 7" tablets or even phones. Flash waved the white flag long ago on Android and Microsoft most likely will not support Flash across their entire OS line.
- opayen 14y agoFlash is not available on Windows Phone.

- cpeterso 14y agoAdobe had internal ports of the Flash plugin for iOS. Ironically, Apple assisted Adobe in the early porting work. However, Apple assigned the work to an "intern" and the code returned to Adobe was such crap that it didn't even compile. Coincidence or diversionary tactic by Apple? Suspicious Adobe people called this "Project Boomerang".
