Same here, I use Opera 9.x as my main browser and Firefox 2.x as my backup.  FF does have flash installed, right along with Flashblock.  If I want to see it, I can just click on it in Firefox.  That doesn't happen very often, though.  YouTube is about the only place I care to see anything Flash-based, and Flashblock does allow whitelists.

That said, I don't go out of my way to look at flash-based websites from webmasters who are too lazy to use HTML alternative content.  Flash is NOT web development platform, just like HTML is NOT for email.  ;cO

Oh, by the way, yet another embarrassment:  Apparently there's some bugs in Excel 2007 concerning math.  Oops!  http://it.slashdot.org/it/07/09/24/2339203.shtml  Old news but still funny as hell.

Cheers,
