Ummm ... macromedia.com ?

Is their site ironically slow or is that just me? It's not massively slow, but you'd think they'd have really fast/efficient code...

Quite a bit of it is Flash though...

One thing I've noticed is that DW8 seems a tad bit slower at rendering then MX2004, could be just me but I've noticed it so far. Flash 8 font rendering THANK GOD!!! - I love the new anti alias settings for the fonts but I still haven’t tested whether they fixed the pixel font problem (blurry text if its not on a whole pixel number like 425.3 or 425.8 instead of 425). Flash 8 Video Encoder - Easy to use but the power lies in Flash 8 when you import the .flv video. Haven’t tried Fireworks 8 yet I’m not a big FW fan and prefer Photoshop.

sorry I thought he was talking about a article he read on the net.

I just got the Dreamweaver 8 Trial. Finally they make a decent installer for their products!

My impression: They're in desperate need to get someone to fix that horrid UI for Dreamweaver! It looks like an app in its alpha stages, beside the fact that it's a lot less responsive than MX 2004 (which is already slow).

Tried it and hated it. I'll keep with MX 2004 until they release an update to speed things up. Of course, I never have been one to work well with new versions. I just upgraded to Tiger today

Is this app safe to uninstall by just deleting the folder? The installation thing makes me wary of just trashing it, for there may be other files somewhere...
