Taiwan President Ma's online video: Powered _by_ Linux, but not _for_ Linux users

A few nice linux videos images I found:

weekly.president.gov.tw, the website hosting current Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou's weekly online video, is running a flavor of Linux (seemingly Fedora 10) and PHP 5.2.6, according to the HTTP packet header.

I'm a bit delighted of the fact that it is running Linux, but at the same time very disappointed that it can only be viewed under MS Windows plus Internet Explorer. What a show-stopper!!

Meanwhile, the major criticism is on Ma's pre-recording shows yet claiming this to be a _weekly_ show:

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- An Internet techie exposed two of President Ma Ying-jeou's weekly online video journals prior to the original scheduled broadcast dates, local media reported yesterday.
