I don't know if this counts but:

10 seconds for what? And on what?
 
Anybody try running Dreamweaver on a MBP? That's the only thing holding me up from buying. I use Dreamweaver daily and if it's dog slow, I won't buy yet.

I suppose that since Adobe controls Macromedia products products, we won't see those UB until next summer?
 
Honest opinions please!

How do Director MX 2004, Flash & Dreamweaver run on the Intel hardware?

What are new buyers meant to do, when looking to purchase new hardware? I can not afford to purchase previous technological hardware (PPC) and then update to newer hardware (Intel) in the space of a year!

What have 'Intel' buyers done to overcome any issues? Is it really that slow? Are there any glitches or major problems?

Any information given is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
 
I use dreamweaver daily on an intel iMac 2.0 1gig ram.

It's pretty snappy. If nobody told me i was working on an intel mac I probably wouldn't notice. Compared to photoshop dreamweaver seems to be faster. Flash works well too. Pretty snappy.

They'd definitely benefit from universal updates, but I use dreamweaver about 40% of my work day and all is well. I use flash about once week, and it's workable, more so than my 1ghz titanium powerbook.

I'm using the most recent versions.
 
my co-worker uses flash daily and it's lightning fast on his intel mac. he also runs photoshop thru a windows VM on parallels, which takes a slight performance hit, but is plenty workable.
 
I had a 4 layer image that was A3 at 300dpi and it was running quickly on my intel.

The only slow bit was saving... For some reason.

Saving is slow on my work's dual 2Ghz G5 1GB RAM machine, I think it's just PS's fault
