ActionScript/Flash and .NET/SilverLight require a plugin, with Dart the "plugin" is optional.

It's called the Dart Runtime which is not included in non Google browsers.

Except: 1. The Dart VM isn't included in Google's generally-released browsers, either (it's included in Dartium, the special version of Chromium bundled with the Dart SDK). 2. The Dart VM isn't a plug-in. 3. As Dart compiles to JS, you don't need the Dart VM to run code developed with Dart, you just need a browser that supports JS.
