You’ve been Assimilated

4th December 2005

Goodbye Macromedia, Hello Adobe. The acquisition has been completed over the weekend. Adobe's future strategy will be disclosed on January 31st. This is when we are going to hear what is going to happen to Macromedia’s and Adobe’s competing products (winners in bold):

GoLive vs Dreamweaver
ImageReady vs Fireworks
Illustrator vs Freehand

Dreamweaver has a commanding market share lead over GoLive as does Illustrator. No matter what happens, hopefully they will continue to develop great products.
