I think it is important to remember that you can combine content generated
in flash with applications built in Flex as well. Which is part of the
reason it is often hard to tell the difference between the two.

You can better spend time writing your components for the buttons and
comboboxes then trying to fix alle the issues
I wouldn't have thought there were too many AS3 developers still using
code within the .fla?
It's so easy to set up FlashDevelop to compile with the Flex SDK and
build every bit of your project through it. Of course you can then add
visual assets, timeline animations, skin your components etc in

I don't necessarily agree with you here. The Flash IDE
*could* have a robust and useful code view that could also
be used to build flex apps without ever creating an fla file.
That could be used to edit classes and even timeline code,
while the traditional Flash IDE view could be used

JesterXL, please clarify:
Flex 1.5 and 2 allow you to compile stand alone SWF's. Flex 1.5, however,
requires the Flex server to be installed on the box where the SWF is
deployed to.
Am I correct in assuming that you mean that Flex 1 requires the server while
all subsequent versions do not?
this legal requirement, and once you create a SWF, you
can do whatever you want with it.
