i attended launch seminar (in bombay) and the product managers of flash and dreamweaver were superb, the presentations of new features in flash and dreamweaver were pretty jaw-dropping,

 

In flash; the new pixel drawn 3d features which enables you to apply shadow, bevel, blend etc (the effect of adobe aquiring mac) on images in flash are ground breaking.

 

In dreamweaver, the auto-zooming when a section of page is selected drew good applause, strong CSS implementation, making use of rss feed in your css table to draw content, and ftp working in background so the dreamweaver IDE is free to use , such features in my head from that presentation.

 

PLUS strong implementation of converting docs-pdf and pdf-docs are awesome too.

 

so overall, a skilled webdesigners should have dreamweaver flash 8. no doubt about it.

 

cheers.

takuro, you said that dreamweaver works quickly on osx86... how quickly? because when i worked on dreamweaver 2004 on a dual 2gh mac at school, it would crash (all the time). i often have to save.

i'm just wondering. because if it works flawlessly on a mac then i'm sold!! for now, xp works hand in hand with dreamweaver. no crashes or anything!!!

been running dreamweaver 8 and the rest of the studio 8 suite for almost a month on OSx86 now, and it is running smooooth as a gem. I haven't had any crashes and it's faster than Studio MX 2004 from what I can tell. Need to go check out some of the cool new features posted about...i had a somewhat weary eye when adobe acquired macromedia. Just because you pay 1 billion dollars for something doesn't mean you're going to look after it right? B)

I've tryed Dreamweaver and Fireworks 8 on two PC's running OSX86. On one of them installed fine, on the other Dreamweaver installs fine but Fireworks crashes just when I start the installer. In fact what crash error reports is a crack from Flash Player.

 

I don't know why it works on one computer and fails on the other.

 

Performance is good. But not as good as the same applications running on Windows XP. I suppose that this is becouse they are big PPC applications.
