The Cost
Before I start the actual reviews, I would like to give you an idea of how much upgrading to these versions or buying them separately is going to cost you. (Note: These are prices in U.S. dollars as listed on Macromedia.com on November 12, 2002).
|
Full Version |
Upgrade |
Dreamweaver MX |
$399 |
$199 |
Fireworks MX |
$499 |
$199 |
Flash MX |
$299 |
$149 |
You can also upgrade Macromedia Studio to Studio MX for $399, or you can buy the full version for $799.
The new software bundle includes the following programs:
- Dreamweaver MX
- Macromedia Flash MX
- Fireworks MX
- FreeHand 10
ColdFusion MX Developer Edition (Windows only)
Note that FreeHand 10, released in April 2001, was not updated.
With that out of the way, let's get right to it!
