I have been lucky enough to join the MM beta testing team.  
I wrote a fantastic review for all of you, about the new features and Actionscript 2. Its a big review, and I hope everyone will like it.

As for me, I’m going back scripting …

Here is the link, please pass it on, I could use the attention

FADGE!!! I am really excited about this release, but I know i won’t be able to afford it for a very long time. I might as well start saving now for Studio MX 2014 :thumb:

This looks quite interesting though :love:

Coool! 599 for the Studio Flash Pro upgrade, add 100 and

I think Kirupa should wait until the release of the program to offer up forum sections for it. After all, the only people who would have questions/problems with the software (other than information on the software… which can all be found at the link in this thread anyway) are people who…

A) Were good enough at Flash that Macromedia allowed them to beta test the program

or

B) Someone who somehow managed to yank an unauthorized copy.

Well, thats why Macromedia openend the reviewers resource before the announcement, instead of at the same time.  
And the information that came out earlier was leaked. I’m sure nobody could have had an unauthorized copy, because each reviewer has his own key, and needs to activitate through internet.

The security scares me …

There are always Corporate copies that float around. I can’t wait tell my district gets our copies. See we are a Macromedia and Microsoft partner so I get everything with either no CD key or if it even has 1 it is a unlimited amount of use and doesn’t validate on the web. 😉 :p:

Well, i think it’s safe for me now to say that I got a chance to beta test the new version without being a regular beta tester (although i had my own key to activate it… ), I can’t give any more details on that but blah, Flash mx Pro 2004 is one hell of a software 🙂

Someone has posted a review of Studio MX 2004 on webmonkey… for those of you that read Colin Moock’s blog I suspect this will come as no surprise.

Anyway, the review is here:
