Goodbye Macromedia
2 Comments | Latest by: Phil | Add Your Comment! »»

I guess I'm a Certified Adobe ColdFusion MX Developer now? Looks like they've done some gaudy hacks to the Macromedia web site to slap the Adobe logo on it. The deeper content pages have some ugliness on them. Wonder what will become of ColdFusion and Flash? I like Photoshop and Acrobat is nice, but Adobe's software is known for it's frustrating user experience. I hope they don't take the Macromedia products that direction.
Anyone else miss good old Allaire?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
God I SO hoped it was going to be an "invisible" merger... I like that the macromedia favorite icon is still in the URL.
I just SAD about this... well... at least they got Studio 7 out first... which is destined to be the last usable "formerly Macromedia" product set.
I am looking forward to annoying copy protection, obscene system resource abuse, five minute load times and splash screens that make me double check to berify I'm using a PC and not a Mac.
I already have a love hate thing going with Adobe, this will likely push me steadily toward hate.
