    hmmm

    Ok - we all know that Photoshop should have been here awhile ago, and that yes, they have announced it and it IS actually coming. I must say though - Macromedia announced it and then shipped the actual product in a very SHORT time period. Unlike Adobe - "We are announcing this product that will be here in a few months..." Maybe that means Dreamweaver and Fireworks will be announced and actually released sooner than we think!

    Impressed

    Have to say I'm impressed by Macromedia's distribution. After reading "overloaded server" comments on other boards I was fearing the worst.

    But I clicked the above link and before I could blink the installer had downloaded onto the desktop, coming in at around 150 K/sec.

    So? I'm in Australia!

    Installers like these normally come across the Pacific via steampower, eg Mac OS X updates, QuickTime downloads, etc.

    AND it's still peak time in the US (4:30 - 7:30 pm).

    Well done Macromedia for ensuring good bandwidth. Well done Optus (local ISP) for providing much better throughput than Telstra broadband ever did.

    Smooth Setup

    Downloaded and it was a smooth set-up.

    Macromedia, thanks for supporting OSX.

    What the...?

    Is Flash Player 6 OS X-native or not? Macromedia doesn't state either way, and it decompressed as a Classic app (installer).

    Thanks for any pointer.

    OSX Native - YES

    Once it's decompressed, yes it is native.

    Awsome!

    very very very nice update and osX native!
    i tought that carbonization would have been the best 'new' feature, but i've already forgot about os issue... there is too many new feature!

    component, video, much better gui, using mc for masking, distribute text to layers, etc, etc, etc!!

    i've been using flash since version 3 and this one is the best update ever!

    Super

    I have to praise MM for their OS X implementation. This is the most comfortable feeling OS X program yet. I love it.
