I am sure that other share this opinion, but I think it is too bad
that one has to buy 2 copies of director to create cross-platform
apps, especially since you would do most of your developing on one
platform, and the stub is the only part that you have to make on both
platforms...
I wondered, though, if a way around having to buy 2 copies of
Director might be to hire one of my lingo friends on the ML to create
the mac projector should I need it, that way, the developing is done
on my legal version, and the projector is created, and paid for, by
another professional. I can see why MM wouldn't want stubs being
downloaded by just anyone, but, to me anyway, it seems like a lot of
money just to make a stub projector...
There might be holes in this theory, but it seems viable to me...
My 2 cents... can I have the change?
