Adobe Flex Builder 2: Free to education
24 October 2007, 22:01, by JonAdobe have today announced that they will be offering Flex builder 2 as a free download (at no cost) to education establishments and students. Not only a welcomed announcement by the community but also this shrewd move will mean more institutions teaching Rich Internet Application development, and more graduates ready to tackle the next generation of web applications and satisfy the growing demand for Flex developers. (Hopefully in time for the impending Rich Internet Application boom?)
For More Information.

Ideal, i’ll be downloading that. You should put a course together for that at college. John

Yes, I’m waiting for Flex 2 free download to learn. I heard that it’s a very cool software to learn.
Thanks to Adobe first,
Robert
