Adobe to buy Macromedia: NYT blogerated link
The document-design software company Adobe Systems Inc. said today that it had agreed to acquire the multimedia software firm Macromedia Inc. for about $3.4 billion in stock.
Huh. You know, this is either really good news for Corel, or possibly bad news for everyone else. I hope they keep Dreamweaver and retire GoLive; but I will welcome Adobe UI discipline in Dreamweaver whenever that inevitability comes to pass.
The problem with the latest Dreamweaver is they’re trying to copy the intereface of .NET which is a piece of crap.
