"The integration with Allaire has gone well and we are all focused and excited about executing on our vision." Business Outlook "While we continue to see great opportunities for Macromedia, the economic climate has significantly reduced our visibility into future financial results," said Burgess. "Therefore, we will not be providing any financial guidance for the near term. We have taken steps to reduce costs in line with the weak economy and remain committed to providing shareholders returns of greater than 20% operating margins over time."
