Should I really make people update their version of flash to run my website? In other words, should I do things in as2 or as3? A lot of people have flash 8, but to upgrade to 9 is hassle for some people, cos you have to go to [Adobe.com/getflashplayer](http://Adobe.com/getflashplayer) (or whatever) and download it and run it. That’s just a bit too complicated for some people… Am I making a big thing out of nothing? As3 is much faster and overall much more solid… But as2 works on most peoples pcs… What should I do?
