I think downloading MX 2004 would be nice, but pretty unethical. The people who develop MX 2004 work pretty dam hard and do some amazing stuff. If you want to use it, you should buy it…or at the very least download it then mail Macromedia an anonymous check for a hundred bucks.

hey everybody,

**all the books should still be good**

ActionScript 2.0 is **optional**  
…aaaaand allthough I’ve not seen it, it is purported to be not so very different than 1.0 as it is _an extended version_…  
(things added vs things changed)  
hence the most fundemental aspects of AS should remain the same

…somebody correct me if I’m wrong but that is what I gathered…

RelandR - Great info man, thanks muchly.

I think I will be getting the pro version here at work. My biggest worry is that it was going to be soley for coding and I wouldnt be able to work my way around it - I guess you have squased that fear. Those video specs sound way to good to be true, I cannot wait! Thanks again my man. 🙂

NP tuk… 🙂

here’s a _secret_ link to some stuff made by the new MX, scroll down to “INTO site” link … It’ll prompt you to dnld the new beta player (#7) - afterwards, close the browser and relaunch it then go back there and scroll down to the “INTO site” link again and then “launch…”

They pointed out at the presentation that they intentionally didn’t change the interface so much that people wouldnt have to familiarize theirselves with Flash all over again 🙂

I dont see anything wrong with being a pirate of the internet if you can afford the software. You might as well learn it now, and when you can afford it, get it. If not, you will not learn the software and never come around to use it…

Thats why I applaud maya for having a free academic version! People learn to use it, then when they grad or get a job… there is no reason they will switch to other software so they will go out and buy it!
