You put your rich experience into many browsers, so that HTML compatibility is no longer an issue, and neither is a different operating system.
Silverlight 1.0 beta has a subset of Windows Presentation Foundation. 1.1 alpha (a 4.25MB download) has a subset of the .NET framework (a 4.24MB download for the alpha).
This brings the rich smart (and the whole developer infrastructure behind it - once the tools come out) right across the board in terms of platforms.
