We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

RIA - Why are Java Web Start applications ignored in this discussion? JWS make a true rich internet application, not a want-to-be smoke and mirror browser "applet".

We have a production enterprise application on the DoD network that replaces standard windows desktop application. It has the same look and feel of the the application it replaces, since it is a true desktop (but internet managed) application. It can interact with local printers. It can use the hard drive to buffer data in a persistent manner. It has the look and feel of the underlying OS, etc.

By comparison, everything else mentioned here pales in features and "richness". More like low-income applications.
