A SlideRocket for Every Platform
We’re attending Office 2.0 this week and have been issued our attendee device du conference, the HP 2133 mini-note PC running HP Suse Enterprise Linux. We knew in theory our Flex based application would run on Suse Linux becuase Adobe Flash is supported across pretty much every major platform, (one of the major reasons it’s so great to develop on) but we wanted to see for ourselves. We’re jazzed to report that SlideRocket runs great on HP’s version of Suse Linux in FireFox 2.0.0.13 with exactly the same look and feel, functionality, and delivery of content as in Windows running Opera or Mac OS running Safari with absolutely no tweaking or adjustment required. This means that whatever client OS you have you can edit, manage, collaborate, present, share and measure your slides on your device, a friend’s, at an event or in a cafe. Wherever you go, SlideRocket will be.
Ah, except that as of yesterday, the Linux platform running Firefox 3 or 2 fails!

Dang, I spoke too soon! Linux/Firefox is working not 10 minutes after that post. Awesome response time!
Looking forward ditching PowerPoint and OpenOffice!
