[flashpro] Adobe owns Macromedia

[jason miller]

True but I imagine that may happen in the year 2012 if ever.
I worry about the mergeing of softwares personally.
Adobe - is for print and offline design work
Macromedia - is for web and online design work

To me and using all these tools every day it's a pretty clear line... I 
doubt adobe is going to merge many things although as pointed out an 
influence from here or there could be beneficial...
