Question on ordering mx2004

[Adam14]

If anyone has any feedback here I'd love to hear it. Last night I downloaded the trial version of mx2004(HOLY CRAP!!!)...anyway, I'm going to buy it, but I was looking for answers today and didn't get much help from Macromedia. The Macro... site says the program doesn't come with AS dictionary, it's extra. I called to find out, if I turn my trial version into the full version, how do I go about getting the manuals that would have normally shipped with the program. I'm told the program comes with pdf files on a disk, which I can download if I turn this into a full version. What I need to know is, has anyone downloaded it, turned it into a full version and been able to download all the necessary literature? Or, has anyone had it shipped to them - I'm told between 2-3 days for up here in Canada, and not been satisfied....I guess what I'm saying is, what's the best way to go about this? Any comments will help me. The download of the trial version took 6 hours 17 minutes, and if I need to go and download a whole bunch of pdf files, am I just better off ordering it to be shipped? Thank, you guys, very much.

i would go to a store and buy it or online, then have a friend download it (with broad band or something faster than dial up) and save to disk.

When I bought Studio MX 2003, I had to spend an extra $10 for the disk and a little book - it was worth it.

However, be prepared to buy some documentation of your own from a bookstore. There are some "Learn Visually" books out there that really aren't that bad.

I also bought a little one by Databecker(?) and it's really good for about $10.

Also...this site right here is where you'll probably get the lion's share of your help.
