I am trying my best to not go to my blog and rant about Flex Builder
3... but its getting harder by the hour. I had an earlier post about

F*CK! Even though the folder was definitely a linked folder (little
icon and all), even though FB just told me it wasn't going to touch my

htdocs folder (document root that got nuked) had all its permissions
reset to No Access (even though my user account is still the
owner/group). Wow, just wow.
Okay, FB... forgive me for getting upset. I've had a bad day.
have nothing but good experiences with Flex Builder, so
there ya go.
