FLASH: Re: play differences between win and mac

[John Dowdell]

Sorry, I usually skip platform-war threads, but only caught this because I

follow Joe's posts. (If there's a question targeted at me, then it helps to

have it at the top of the post, and to avoid titles like "sitecheck",

"detection", "evil bill" and other skimmables.... ;-)


>> My question to JD and all Macromedia guys is:

>>

>> 1. Is Flash 4/5 just simple Mac ports of Win apps ???

>>

>> 2. Is this issue something you guys discuss and are concerned with ??


1. No.


2. It's a dead issue, and has been for years... creative professionals

develop on Mac and Win, so that's where the tools must be. Design apps must

be on both.


Of course, you may believe that I was replaced by a pod last night, and so

discount anything I say, that's always possible.... ;-)



For Matt's misdated "it's slower at school" post, please read the docs or

technotes on performance... there could be many factors which influence the

final display rate of a particular piece on one Mac and one PC.
