I just wanted to see what the difference would be in creating two Apollo applications with the same two boring html files, page1.html and page2.html. The first one was simply compiled using adt through the console setting page1.html as the rootContent. The second was a flex application that set the source of an HTML component to page1.html and compiled to an AIR file with Flex Builder. The results:

They both look the same, although the pure html version will automatically show the page title in the window title. They both function the same. The big difference is that the pure html AIR file is 112k while the flex html version is 256k.
Not sure what is to be learned here, it was just more to satisfy my own curiosities.
Here are the 2 applications:
