Maybe, but probably not as many as Microsoft would expect. Many "programmers" of actionscript are indeed designers who need functionality on their code, and Silverlight requires real programming (understanding object oriented concepts and using them correctly, etc). Most of those designers are not interested in programming at all. Also, most of that "programming" in actionscript is done by copy-pasting from the Internet :lol: And doing that in object-oriented languages is not as easy, as you have to prepare several things before pasting pieces of code. Actionscript has the advantage of relying on movie frames as managed code containers, so the programmer with bad habits doesn't have to care about the module structure and interfacing.
