If Dreamweaver doesn't require Shockwave to create or to view that will help its adoption in the marketplace. If it can provide higher level functionality than the HTML authoring tools like FrontPage and PageMill, it should be a success. The professional web developement market is open for the right tool at the right price. So far, none of the traditional design oriented tools (Quark, Director) have been able to satisfy this demanding audience. This is possibley a tremendous growth opportunity for Macromedia. Macromedia has shown that it can address this audience well in that it has sold a variety of tools to them in the past.

I come not to bury Director/Shockwave, but to praise Dreamweaver/DHTML. I buy into the vision that Macromedia has put forward in the website www.dhtmlzone.com. IMHO, this is what websites will look like in 1998. DHTML will rule, not Java, not Shockwave,... I think MACR is onto something that could really impact the industry and your company in the long term.
