Hi all
Just updating my computer and it has come up with a load of guff about silverlight. What the hell is it? what does it do? More MS bloatware?
Could someone please explain in plain english :thumb: :shrug:

Like I said guff.... :shrug:
dont think i will bother with that....
I think it's one of those things to avoid. ;)
I've not yet come across a website using it, but from what i've read it won't be long. Apparently it is more flexible and easier to code than flash.
Well there you go. Perhaps I'll be going back on what I said... :)
I checked a couple out and the video was exceptional quality, much better than flash, I was pleasantly surprised
Ive only just disabled flashblock for ff, I only did that because the anklebiter goes on cebeeies an dr who websites.....
Like everyone has said it's Microsoft answer to flash, although some are saying it's quite alot better. I know Microsoft have been pushing it out quite a lot. I even got it unsuspectingly on my Mac with Microsoft Office.
They're sneaky like that. :)
Microsofts update site will use it in the future, they are beta testing at the moment.
Thats one way of getting it onto a lot of machines!
I use it to watch baseball on mlb.tv. Works great, no problems....
