And by "almost everybody" you mean "almost everybody running Windows,
OSX, or i386 Linux (and perhaps some i386 FreeBSD guys running the elf
emulation mode, and the amd64 guys running in a 32bit chroot)".

Which really translates to: "almost everybody Adobe will allow".

The free (as in speech) flash plugin doesn't seem to handle video yet.
