You also said "Any Flash designer can upgrade to the Generator

Studio at low cost" ($199.00 from macromedia's web site. This is for the
upgrade, if you don't have the prior generator, which I am sure many don't

yes do have a lot of $$$ but based on personal experience try calling up one
of those places and getting help with problems like Mime not being set on
the server etc.. I hope you have a headphone jack for your telephone because
you will be sitting there for a long time.
