JavaFX is indeed rather nice.

I am especially happy about some of the small things like bind.

But non the less the big players in that market is Flash/Flex and
SilverLight.

I tried to watch the Richard Feynman Messenger Series lectures at
Project Tuva but gave up half way through the first lecture. I don't
know if something was wrong with my machine, or the Silverlight
implementation, or the Project Tuva implementation, or something else,
but itwould have taken 5 hours to watch an one hour lecture at that rate.

MS SL or Linux with Moonlight?

SL video in general should be fine with hardware acceleration,
DRM etc..

Well many people may not consider DRM fine for non-technical reasons,
but technically it is working.

Well, turns out my low end XP box is the culprit. I can watch it just
fine on a new Windows 7 laptop with lots of memory.

Then you should either have your eyesight checked, or your 'license to
develop GUIs' revoked - or both. I say this for the the sake of your
unfortunate users. All 'both' of them.

Yeah. Or at least, I tried some of the demos. around 12 months ago.
After crashing my browser(s) twice, I gave up on it.
