Macromedia Flash team wants your input

[MT]

Hey Macromedia-


I got some input for you, in line with the marketing focus of this product

survey.  How about a studio bundle with Director and Flash, for PC and Mac?


As a developer that's what I really need, and I have a feeling I'm not alone.


xres?  xtreme 3d?  I don't think so.


Macromedia products, in order of current usefulness to me:


1.  Director

2.  Flash

3.  Dreamweaver

4.  Fireworks

5.  Authorware

6.  Fontographer



the rest don't rate at the moment.  One other thing I have noticed (notably

with Freehand, Fireworks and Dreamweaver) is the increasing neglect of the

Mac platform, my PRIMARY development platform and the PRIMARY development

platform for most of the people I work with.  The memory requirements are

ridiculous (especially Freehand), and stability and performance are

inferior to the Wintel platform.  Neither I nor anyone I know is planning

on switching platforms, so I think you guys better stop hoping this

platform is going to go away.


I would rather have a cross-platform studio with the tools I use, than 3

different studios with 1 tool I need, and 2 or 3 throw-aways.  (what the

heck is insta.html anyway?  Have I EVER SEEN this product in 4 years of

working in the internet/multimedia industry in New York? (answer: no))


Other than that stuff, I think Macromedia is great.  I keep telling

everyone to buy stock, 'cause it's definitely a better business than Yahoo.
