Is anyone using Vista and enjoying it?
I am. Vista Home Premium. There are a few things you have to figure out to
work with Vista's security, but overall it seems a fairly solid OS. I'm
using the CS3 developer bundle, and FlexBuilder 3, for most of my
development tools, plus an assortment of

It's time for me to get a new computer and I have heard so many horror
stories about Vista that I am thinking of switching to Mac. What tools are
people using to develop on the Mac. I mostly Flash IDE, FlexBuilder,
FlashDevelop, SWFMill, SWFDump, HaXe, FlashTracer - are these available on
Mac?
I know you're asking for more specific info, but, hey: Just get a Mac
and run Parallels or VMWare. I run XP on my Mac. I also have Vista
installed under Parallels for when a customer calls up with a
Vista-specific problem, but otherwise I never use it.

Speaking of Ubuntu, I do my Flash development on an Ubuntu box. Flex
Builder 3, the Flex SDK, and Flash Player 9 run fine on it. If you
really need the IDE, you can VMWare, Remote Desktop, or plain-old dual
boot into your commercial OS of choice to run it.
Nowadays, you can buy a cheap Windows
Does disabling UAC make the OS any faster, or just less annoying?
I personally work on mac and pc (win xp) and I find the flash interface on
the mac intolerably slow. I tend to develop on the pc and export the final
swfs (with the designer's fonts ;-) ) on the mac.

First of all, let me say this:
Overall, I think Mac is a pretty decent platform for creating Flash, I'd
even say it's the best.
Ok, now the bashing ;)
I've worked at some companies who used Windows XP, and others (including the
current one) who use Mac OS X. And between these two, the best one is
FlashDevelop is not, and probably will never be, since it's made
with .NET framework.
FlashDevelop beats every other editor hands down for Actionscript development.
TextMate is great for other languages, and decent at AS, but FlashDevelop is
truly the finest example of what an Actionscript
Dunno if that has been mentioned, but if you are NOT a command line guy,
like me, and want a kick ass non-CLI SVN client, by far the best option
is TortoiseSVN, which afaik is only available for Windows and beats the
crap out of everything else i've seen.

Dave,
When I get my next new/replacement workstation it will be a dual quad-core
Intel (or whatever is newer) Mac Pro. You can run OS X, Windows, etc.
The only thing I would not do it pay Apple's predatory pricing for
additional memory sticks, RAID controller, additional drives, etc. Just get
Otherwise, i'm very, VERY unreligious about operating systems,
because i frankly think they all suck in one way or another.
You've got a lot of nerve being rational and objective making that
statement!

All that being said, btw, do NOT, I repeat DO NOT get Windows Vista. If
anything will make you want to switch to OSX, it's Vista.
Stick with Windows XP until Vista SP3 comes out
