wow. but i don't think that it will ever be as good as the orginal. The linux version will always have less features than the orginal.

btw isn't this breaking copyright law?

do you mean as good as macromedia?

not sure, but there are other flash editing softwares like swishmax, so I suppose it isn't

you guys think this will work with linux live cds?
For those who don't know, linux live is a distro of linux that runs off a cd.
Thanks

So you... pop in the cd and linux starts? On OSless machine or one with other OS?

Well it boots from the cd, so both....I think you do need a harddrive though

I've read articles of people running linux live cd's off of computer with no os, It needs atleast 2-5 mb of space to save the resources and stuff like that, I wonder if you had a computer with no hard drive, but like a 128 mb flash thumbdrive,I don't know where i'm going with this, so I am going to look more now. :thumb:

That approach has been (is being) considered. From what I read it was directed towards a college environment where students just ran the OS of a a read-only disk and used their portable harddrives (pendrieves or whathaveyou) to store what they needed etc.

hmmm, that is not a bad idea

the idea was to have improved security with minimal access to the actual OS, so really, anything you do wouldnt be permanent aside from whats your own personal drive.

i have the run-on-cd version so i can play around with linux w/o investing the time to install it.

It works very well and it doesn't need a hdd at all if you don't want to save preferences. I have an Inspiron 300m with wireless centrino working on it so for me, the possibilities seem limitless. But i would recommend a fast cd-rom drive and a bit of ram.
