It sounds like good news to me, the pot buying the black kettle. MS can
only fatten Macromedia, and make it worse, they have no idea how to move
it forward. My guess it they only bought them because they thought
Macromedia had some market they could keep.
I predict it will give us all a better lead. If MS knew how to do
something like Flash, they would have done it already, wouldn't they?
When they bought WebTV, what good did they do there, besides sink the
WebTV logo with the sheer weight of their name? As they sink / gut
Macromedia / Flash, it eliminates Macromedia from the competitive landscape.
Think of it as a Christmas present for us.
