Great print designers are great in part because they understand the tools of their trade...like paper types, printing tricks and nuances. I think the same can be said for great interactive designers...the best tend to at least understand how to use technology to a design advantage. I started out in print but now do 95% interactive. I still love print but haven't invested as much time in staying current as I have with interactive.
I think you can do both but I disagree that you can break it down so simply to "design is design." It's a lot of work to stay sharp in one medium, much less two.

- interesting question. I definitely had to adapt to the medium. That is def part of the fun of working in other mediums.monkeyshine
