I tried to load Voidrunner, then I laughed a lot, looking at all those flickering rasters

/me wonders: how is it possible? One thing I could not imagine about flash is writing a computer emulation in that stupid script language.

It requires Flash 9, and I believe they have added a lot more low level API's to that.

Can anybody say to me about advantages of Flash over Java? Java must be much faster...

IMO, there is no real difference between Java and Flash. Flash was always stepping closer to Java, which was a complete programming environment from day 1, while Flash needed 8 versions (and about 10 years) to catch up.
Since M$ is trying to force Java out of Windoze, Flash has a lot wider market share. Nowadays even development environments (with forms and all the stuff) are built on Flash, but this is just up to M$, when they decide to force Flash out of Windoze it will fall just as Java did a few years ago.
(And yes, M$ has plans...  They are developing their own, "internally controlled" Flash replacement environment, called Sparkle http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1914903,00.asp, probably this was behind the scnenes, when Adobe bought Macromedia.)
Sorry for the off, I don't want to keep going on this topic, just wanted to say...
