Software/Synchronization Questions


Hey all,

I'm looking for a few software solutions under linux. Hopefully someone out there has some answers for me!

1 - Macromedia Flash/Dreamweaver. Can't get these guys to run under wine, and the 2004 editions won't install on win98 which eliminates my win4lin solution. It's kind of a pain because I need these apps to work! Anyone out there been able to run them, or found some type of alternative?

2 - Anyone know of a good place for information on Raki/synCE? I have a Dell Axim, and I'd prefer to use it with Linux, but unfortunately I need to be able to sync several things (Mainly ToDo/Contacts/Calendar/Email). If anyone knows of a good way to synchronize these I'd be extremely happy!

3 - Anyone out there use gnomad? I have a Creative Nomad Jukebox II (20gb) and I'd like to move it from windows to linux, just wandering if anyone's had any luck.

Thanks All!

Cost...

Unfortunately there is also the horribly high cost of purchasing VMWare plus an additional Microsoft Tax for the privilege of running another license in VMWare....

The incentive there is to just stick with the dual boot...
