I enjoy using Macro's products.. you can do so many things with them its unbelievable.. the only trick is if you know how to use them or not! But thats what Tutorials are for!

Freehand- never used
Flash- just getting used to-awesome :D
fireworks- awesome
dreamweaver- pretty good

It is worth it. Flash is still the best in creating .swf's

Macromedia is now under Adobe. So it is Adobe Dreamveawer, Adobe Flash - at least from version 9 on. All in one place. Hardly anyone compets.
Ony free programs like GIMP.

There ok but you can get the same or better software that does the the same thing and much cheaper.

id say Dreamweaver is over rated and over priced.
