Hi Rick,

Sorry for the delay in the reply but I have so many people to chew up that it takes time!

You said:
“I would seriously have to question how in the world they have managed to remain in business and make HUGE acquisitions such as Macromedia. But that’s just me.”

That’s what I keep saying. Once in the corporate mole you could deal actual SHIT and people will still deal it, cause you have a corporate name. When they started I’m sure they didn’t make the goofs they presently do or they wouldn’t be where they are. But now, that’s another story, each and every goof is income deductible, so it is very paying to do such flops…

You also said:
“It may surprise you to hear that I totally believe I AM God. But then again, I also believe that You and MonkeyPi and all the other billions of people in this realm are God. We are all simply God expressing itself in billions of different ways. God is in us, as us and through us. Within and without. No angry old man in the sky in serious need of mood stablizers, just an ever loving presence permeating the universe, seeking to express in many ways.”

Love this part!! I have similar beliefs

you said:
“Namasté… Rick”

I’m surprised here…Namaste! What tribe?

As both a RoboHelp / Flare trainer, I am not surprised to see this amount of discussion over the two tools.

RoboHelp 7 is about to come out. That means Adobe is still continuing support of it. I have seen and ran all the betas. It works just dandy.

Flare 3 is also out. It is pretty good as well.

So really, take your tomato and run with it based on your content, your desired featureset, and ease of learning curve for each tool.

And Hi Ramon, I have not been on the MadCap forums in a while…but on my end anyway its been more Robo training than Flare of late.
