On the hardware firewall front... After using my Linksys wrt54gs w/ Sveasoft Satori for a few months now, I enthusiastically recommend it as a firewall/router. It's running IPtables, a compact no-hassle appliance, and highly configurable if you want it to be. So why waste a full blown PC running

Adobe bought Syntrillium about 1 1/2 years ago, absorbing and upgrading Cool Edit Pro and renaming it Adobe Audition. In just this one area, I respect Adobe for choosing to "absorb" a high-quality app and actually making it better. AA is as good as CEPro was, and offers many more options.

Oh, I still have lots of apps that are exclusively cold fusion. Cold Fusion's biggest benefits had nothing to do with Java, and everything to do with the integration of multiple SQL sources to multiple SQL outputs, including a much cleaner implimentation of access to Oracle then most ASP

The biggest thing macromedia did was to have instant generation of flash and better use of exterior executables. However, some of the best reasons to use CF4.5 ENT didn't get much flushing out; writing plugins for CF became more taboo and Macromedia didn't endorse them nearly as much, which

The one thing that will be interesting is that you take two of the largest vector postscript programs out there.. really, the only ones of consequence, and you fold them under the same roof (Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand). Only one of those products will survive (IMHO). Also, I feel
