Well, Dreamweaver has a huge footprint, is quite mature, and smart
technology behind it. GoLive has a much smaller footprint, is not so
mature a product, and has smart technolofy behind it. I don't think
it'd make good business sense to write off a cash cow so easily. Then
again, since when does business sense = common sense? ;-)

But, so what if Dreamweaver is discontinued? Will your copy stop
working? Will no one see a gap if one is left and not fill it? And,
should we worry about this now, when the acquisition itself won't even
be official until the fall?
