    Good Points: I can only refer to flash & dreamweaver as I haven't used the other products that much, but to compare dreamweaver to say frontpage is like comparing a tumble dryer to a mangle. It has so many "professionally" related features it's amazing, though this can also make it a little unwieldy. It's great for both coders and newbie "drag 'n' droppers" so it's superb if you know what you're doing and great even if you don't.Flash, again is so fully-featured, an incredible web content development environment, and yet, again, can be a little unwieldy, and it definitely isn't for the faint-hearted. Also, it takes quite some time getting your head around how the different aspects of your development or "movie" relate to each other, such as the stage, the library and the timeline. Oh and in order to create anything useful, you will need to delve into the actionscript side of it too, so "coderphobes" might want to stay away. Having said that, I'm not much of a coder but I managed to get around it a fair bit by reading examples of code off the net and in the help/reference and reworking bits here and there.


    Bad Points: Massive. Some might call it bloatware. I'm not sure I would, everything in this suite has a genuine use. Very Expensive, but you get what you pay for. Now owned by Adobe!


    General comments: The reasons why I couldn't recommend Studio MX 2004 with Flash Pro to a friend is because it costs too much.
