Adobe bought Macromedia

[awesomegamer]

On april 19th, Adobe boght the Macromedia company for $3.4 billion dollers!

I don't think it will affect Macromedia much except maybe improve it a little because they must have been going bankrupt.

[awesomegamer]

well MM probably makes alot of money from their registered users, i guess adobe saw it as what i call a "money machine" the money at the time (3.4 billion american dollers) was worth more at the time then what they make over time. thats generaly how companes do that.

I heard about that... and i don't think it will affect me... but microsuck buying out rareware... :cry:

[awesomegamer]

microsoft (lol) bought rareware, if im correct they made some nintendo game? banjo, didykong racing, and that kind of stuff?

[GameClaw_268]

lots of good nintendo games :cry:

Including super smash bros :supercrywailingbawling:

[Ashoat]

YES IT GOING TO BE FOR THE XBOX NOW!!

 

Sry, had to say that, I'm an xbox fan

 

I think Adobe buying Macromedia is cool, cuz... I donno, it just is. I have some Macromedia products, and if Photoshop were including in Studio MX, I would be a happy man.

[GameClaw_268]

No, its not. The liscenses would go back to nintendo, and micro$uck dismantled the company

[Ashoat]

waitwaitwait... why would the licenses go back to nintendo?

[awesomegamer]

so let me see...

 

nintendo owns mario

rareware owns super smash bros

microsoft now owns rareware

microsoft is going to put smash bros on xbox, but they cant because nintendo own the mario characters! :confused:

Maybe this fusion will do bether for us...

[ipoddude]

That was unexpected...its crazy

[Prodigy]

Anyone find it ironic that Studio MX is the SAME price as Photoshop CS?

[Kyougi]

Makes sense, they used to be two companies that used to be in competition.

nice to know but doesnt affect me
