The increase in performance and capabilities of ActionScript 3.0/Flash CS3 over AS2/Flash 8 is astounding! I intend to discuss this more in the future, but for those who haven’t yet made the jump and are considering it, I cannot possibly urge you strong enough to make the jump. Especially since Flash Player 9 is at 83.4% in the March 2007 penetration study! To make this transition a little easier, here are some useful links to start learning it:
