It woulda been an interesting world if adobe had bought the swf format. i think the reason they did turn it down was adobe just saw their marketshare was more desktop publishing and video. what heavy hitter apps does adobe have in the web field other than imageready and golive? even better of a question, where would macromedia be without flash? probably in the crapper. they woulda had nothing for web animation cept for director/shockwave which has mammoth filesizes as its really intended for cd authoring. dreamweaver woulda been neck and neck with golive and fireworks just isn't as robust as imageready nor has the support of a heavy hitter app like photoshop. macromedia woulda fallen into the developer coder niche.
