You obviously associate MM with Flash - I associate them with UltraDev.
My guess is that the main rationale behind this merger is for productivity site
development, and with the future ASP (as in Application Service Provider) market
on the Internet in mind - much of which will be database driven - and not to
make wiz bang frontends to home pages.
