[flashpro] Adobe owns Macromedia

For as long as Flash has had a lack of good drawing tools, if Adobe
added even a few that would be a tremendous improvement.

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...
