Application developer Adobe completed its takeover of Macromedia on Monday and promptly unveiled three software bundles for graphics designers.

The Adobe Design Bundle contains Adobe's Creative Suite 2 Premium and Macromedia's Flash Professional 8. The Adobe Web Bundle contains Creative Suite 2 Premium and Macromedia Studio 8. Both bundles are available from Adobe's Web site. A third bundle, called the Adobe Video Bundle, has also been promised. Few details are available, aside from the information that it will contain Macromedia Flash Professional and will ship in 2006.

Adobe's takeover of Macromedia was announced back in April, and sparked speculation that some products would be abolished once the merger was completed.

Graeme Wearden reported for ZDNet UK.
