    "Download a patience app with this as well..."

    October 23, 2011  |   By Darth-V-Vader

    Pros

    The new code snippets are useful
    AS3 allows easier coding

    Cons

    Incredibly Slow to start
    Switching between projects takes forever
    Jerky animation on certain platforms
    Memory Hog (Without opening project Consumes almost 1gig)
    AS3 is not compatible with google's Swiffy

    Summary

    Although the cons seem to outweigh the pro's here overall flash CS5.5 is worth waiting for. As a industry standard flash is a dying technology. Until adobe creates a better Wallaby (Convertor for flash to html5) flash will just be another cool lil tool for web apps. When using CS5.5 make sure you pop a chill pill and give it the 5 minutes it needs to load. Try and only work on 1 project t a time and dear god try not to run anything else. (Outside of Adobe products) Its funny tho how Adobe products run seamless when flash is running but others cause flash to crash or just come to a crawl.
