Had to defend the man. If you're talking about Mickey Richardson he's great.

They give the guy three hours to discuss Freehand, Dreamweaver, Fireworks

and Flash at one of their shows. He should be given a medal for attempting

it. As to Freehand just had this discussion with my partner last night. I

have been using Corel since version 1. I know it and the tools so it is much

easier than Freehand or for that matter Illustrator for me. Does that mean

it's better or worse? NO. What it does explain IMO is why you probably will

never hear a MAC person say good things about Corel. They don't know it and

their experience is with another package. We all tend to like what we know

and diss what we don't. It makes us feel like experts when in fact we will

always have alot to learn.


Just my opinion,

which is no more valid than anyone's except perhaps Russ.
