NBC will not play video for linux!! Time for a lettering?

[Jonathan Jesse]

It requires silverlight which runs on xp. Watched the coverage through my xp vm.  While the lockdown forcing everyone to use silverlight sucks the player is actually really good and the best part of the coverage is a lot of them don't have commentors to listen to them tell you what you already know.

It's more than that. Even Windows XP users cannot view the video. It
specifically requires Windows Vista Home or Ultimate. I suppose that
Windows Vista Business users, and basic users as well, cannot use the
service?

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
