I think this rumor was going around about 6 months ago. I would be surprised if something like this happened.   David Grant Web Applications Developer The Di-Mark Group 214-303-0638 x238 1801 Laws St. Dallas, TX 75202     ----- Original Message ----- From: derek bumpas To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 10:48 AM Subject: Macromedia & MS Read in the InfoWorld Dec 16,2002 (Issue 50)     Quote:   �I am not the only one on the prowl. One of my spies reports hearing quite a lot about Macromedia being acquired. And the alleged acquirer is none other than Microsoft.  She also said that Microsoft has been very jumpy as of late because of all the innovation on Macromedia�s part. So much so, in fact, the larger M just wants to buy them, perchance to avoid any competition in the desktop and developer frays where Microsoft plays. �  -- Robert X.
