Re:Thank god for this merger (Score 1)

"Geeks may be angered by this merger, but professional designers are going to be very very happy today." or not... I'd rather use Freehand over Illustrator. IMHO Freehand is way more user friendly and stable and it fits into my workflow much better than Illustrator because it supports multiple pages per document. If Freehand is tossed it should be made open source. I'd hate for Freehand to die. Less choice in Graphics app vendors can't be good for the market either. CS3 for $5000?... If you're a graphics pro you'll have no choice but to cough up. It's a SAD day for Graphics pros.
