    Adobe creaters of photoshop, acrobat reader, imageready have bought macromedia for ... wait for it ....

    $3.4 billion!

    yes 3 and a half billion dollars a hell of a lot! Macromedia are makers of the very popular FLASH and DREAMWEAVER. Adobe and Macromedia have been rivals for a long time now this has come to an end, what will this mean though?

    Well it could be very usefull to webdesigners, Adobe with the best photo/image editing program photoshop and macromedia with flash and dreamweaver they could create easy transactions. For example you could be able to code designs so much easier and import the designs into dreamweaver with ease.[/b][/quote]

    He wrote it on another forum, but I thought i'd post it here.

    Oh, I only help people with problems there, don't read junk. It's not really computing exactly, its general art discussion so oh well. I don't know, but coding in dreamweaver should get a hell of alot easier!

    Ummmm unlike you people I do read the newspaper so go suck a dick if you're going to make a crack at being a "24-7 nerd"

    It's not a big deal... Adobe mainly did it so it can acquire rights to Macromedia's Mobile technologies.

    I read the Washington Poot(D.C.'s newspaper) and saying how that is a larger city, it didn't have that in the newspaper. And I read the whole thing.

    I heard about this yesterday. Now Adobe will own the amazing Dreamweaver.
