Adobe Dreamweaver CS3: Compare prices

By Daniel Drew Turner on 17/04/2007

More Adobe reviews , RRP: AU$715.00

The good:

  • Interface will be familiar to users of previous versions
  • Improved CSS capabilities
  • Good integration with other CS3 applications
  • Universal binary for both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs

The bad:

  • Spry framework features should be tested for compatibility
  • Browser compatibility check requires an Internet connection
  • Update is not a groundbreaking move forward
  • Lack of intuitive design spells woe for Web design newbies

The bottomline:

Dreamweaver CS3's universal binary alone could make the upgrade worthwhile for some users, and improved CSS plus new Spry features will be welcome to pros, but that's not a lot of advances for the steep price.
