Depends on you really. Most people would do well with a mixture of both. It's free to check out some sample videos on lynda.com. Flex in a week is to be recommended: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/videotraining/ and is free. Did you expect some definitive answer? Paul

Is Chocolate Ice Cream Better than Vanilla? It's really more of an opinion than a provable fact. I've done both, read a bunch of books and watched some of the videos on Lynda.com. I found them both very helpful, the videos more so than the books at the beginning and the books more helpful now
