Director has long been established as the premier multimedia authoring
tool. Version 8 brought closer web focus. With the upgrade to 8.5,
Director has become an important Flash compatible 3D development
tool. This integration of two of Macromedia's most exciting graphics
tools, as well as including a sophisticated 3D modelling environment
means that Director 8.5 is not a half-version so much as a rapid
response to a burgeoning and demanding market.
