prathapml Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Slashdot is having nice sarcastic comments! This is great! Now my two least favorite web plugins are under the same roof. I only have to hate one company now.This means the next version of Flash MX will get a sleep(20) inserted in the startup code to match the startup time of Adobe's products.And even though I'm not really interest in what patents Macromedia holds or who made Flash MX, the next version will probably teach me that as well.I hope Adobe embraces BitTorrent for the inevitable 50Meg Flash player download to come. *sigh*I for one welcome our graphic monopolist overlords!Macrodobe Media anyone?The new Dreamweaver is Even More eXpensive (E-MX) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angadsingh007 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Unexpected news. This raises many questions.What will be the fate of the industry standard tools for developing rich and interactive content for the web namely Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks and FreeHand ? (not to mention Macromedia's wide range of other authoring and collaboration software)Customers are calling for integrated software solutions that enable them to create, manage and deliver... compelling content. Bruce Chizen, chief executive of AdobeCombined development ? Integration of software ? PDF + Flash ?The "positive" aspect of this consolidation could be that if Adobe's and Macromedia's cultures meld well, they could present Microsoft with significant competition in the office-document creation software market.

totoymola Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Great news. New softwares for silent installation. That's gonna be interesting.. Imagine Macromedia softwares with Adobe's method of registration.. Big problem again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
