I was pretty disappointed how clunky some of the interfaces feel... flash in particular (some better design choices but the same old shitty macromedia style coding).
Photoshop was quite a nice, 3D stuff is a total waste of time in my opinion, just feels like they were trying to keep the team busy. Is there a way to turn that FUCKING MASSIVE COMPASS off when you rotate the canvas?
Also I noticed one weird thing, when my canvas was at 100% a 1 pixel line was blurry... it should have been crisp and was when I zoomed in.After Effects is a nice update, the interface has had a ton of polish graphically, looks fucking great and well made. The AE teams attention to detail is streets ahead from the rest of Adobe. Not many new features but probably my fave update.
Fireworks didn't work when I tested it "Fatal subsystem failure, restart your computer", if you ask me Fireworks shouldn't be doing anything that requires me to restart my computer, makes me worried adobe are fucking around with my OS. I've never been a fan of programs that stick their roots too deep in the OS ever since MSN Messenger wrecked my whole windows install when I installed an update because it molests far too much of the OS for an IM program.
