I refuse to install Silverlight :P
4 comments

It's just a video tag for me in Chrome.
Works in Chrome without Silverlight, but not in Firefox.
Shows up as an HTML5 video element for me in Safari.
Forced me to install silverlight; safari windows (work machine so I dont care)
FF4 on OSX here and I can't view the slideshow without installing Silverlight. Didn't know I would offend people with my stance on Microsoft's Silverlight. I am peeved at Microsoft's stance on Flash or other open solutions. And don't get me started on their "web standards" implementations.
You should have to work with it...
"Doh! Your browser doesn't seem to support Silverlight or HTML5 video or we don't have an HTML5 video for this one."

that's what I get when I clicked play. I'm using FF4 on Mac OSX.
