I just noticed that the Macromedia website now has all Adobe logos and stuff on it, and it seems that Adobe has bought out Macromedia. Apparently, this happened on the 5th of December. http://www.macromedia.com/macromedia...acromedia.html
Macromedia was approximately $3.4 billion.

So Adobe now owns one of its rival companies. Interesting.

Old news, sorry. But they brought them about 3 weeks ago now.

Lol, yeah it is, but I only found out today.

It wasn't too public.

**stylus** · 12-21-2005, 03:20 AM

Agreed, considering I'm on the Macromedia mailing list and didn't recieve an email about it.

They wanted to keep it a secret,
