My Dad won a 90 day full trial of Macromedia Breeze. Unfortunately, he has no use for it whatsoever. It's a server based product and he wants a desktop product.

So....he's trying to work out a deal with Macromedia where he can "swap" the value of Breeze for other Macromedia products or sell the 90 trial in his own. The full year of Breeze is $19K so he wants to ask for $4K of Macro products or sell it for $2-3K. But they also seem to have a subscription service that's $375 a month, so maybe it's not worth as much as they're telling him.

I checked on Ebay and didn't see anyone selling it so it's hard to judge.

I know there's Dreamweaver, but can anyone recommend any other Macro products he could barter for? Or where he might sell whatever the hell he has?

Thanks

All depends on what his needs are, Peaches.... Macromedia makes a TON of great products - I've been eyeballing Studio MX myself - the new on with Flash MX Pro... It really just boils down to what he needs to do, and if they have a tool for him - they've got all sorts of info about all their products online -

I've always used their stuff here at the Oprano Dungeon. WAY back when they first introduced Fireworks and Dreamweaver, I told Photoshop to fuck off and quit using it for design! Photoshop is entirely TOO slow an environment to work in for me - takes SO long to do something trivial... I've entirely shifted to Fireworks for all my graphics work. There's pretty much NOTHING that Photoshop did that Fireworks can't do BETTER and FASTER!!! And now with the unholy beast that is PhotoshopCS (talk about bloatware)... suffice it to say I'm happier than a pig in shit with my Macromedia products!

So happy, in fact, I think I'll make with the dancing fruit!


ps - if he gets some copies of Studio MX Pro let me know - I might be willing to buy one off him if he's selling cheaper than retail!
