Hopefully see you there!

NOTE: The below is for Mac only at the moment - but I will try and obtain the Windows compatible versions.

I have managed to obtain trial copys of 2 of Adobes latest products Gumbo, also known as Flex 4 and Catalyst (formerly Thermo).

If you would like to try these, please follow the links below:

Catalyst: http://www.123adapt.com/adobe/Adobe%20Flash%20Catalyst_installer_mac_214930.dmg
Gumbo : http://www.123adapt.com/adobe/Gumbo_mac_installer_215018f.dmg
Serial : http://www.123adapt.com/adobe/serial.rtf

Also note that, this is authentic trial software from Adobe and NOT Illegally downloaded!!!

If you have any problems with these - let me know.

Found this nice little tool a while back for creating tutorials or demoing functionality of an application.

The output it generates is in Flash format, so the content can be viewed in a browser.

It also allows you to add shapes and speech bubbles, making it even easier to highlight and explain application functionality.

Also, the software is free!!!

Check it out here at: http://www.debugmode.com/wink/ and also have a look at the tutorials.
