Until recently, I am an avid fan of Adobe products. I don't usually have a specific preference on my development tools but soon I realize that in terms of usability and cross-functionality...using Macromedia products is more convenient.

While Adobe products still remains "truly for the professionals" and I still use them for testing and other stuff, I believe that it is harder to learn Adobe than Macromedia mainly because you can do much much more in Adobe.

But then, I'm still new at this so Macromedia will do...for the meantime.
