Hola Alejandro.


Shockwave and Flash are definitly not the same.

To read an extensive explanation on why, go here:

http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/99/27/index3a.html

But to put it in a few words, Shockwave contents are created using Director,

an authoring tool used for a long time to create interactive CDRoms and

multimedia presentations.  Flash contents are created using Flash, wich

completly beats Director on the web performance deparment, because of the

ridiculous size of the flash files.  (at least that is the purpose, to make

small files.  Not always achieved, i know).  Also the prices are not the

same at all.... Flash is 299 dlls, while Director is 999dlls..... mucha

plata....


Saludos,


Eva
