room and breathlessly announced:

>Motion.

>can't they just grow up?

>It then went on to say that I should go to

>www.adobe.com/products/livemotion to download the Beta now. I did (of course

>it isn't really there yet)

>Supposedly they will send me an email with

Last Friday, 2/25/00, and/or Sunday, 2/27/00, on FoxNews' "The 

O'Reilly Factor", Bill O'Reilly read *my* email to him! BUT I didn't 

run a VCR on it. Anybody have a copy? TNX.


"Adobe, who has deeper pockets than Macromedia, has announced a Flash 

competitor. Will Macromedia survive?"
