Grrrr....
So I signed up to take a course on Vector Graphics at Cascadia Community College, (handily located just across from where I work) and I foolishly assumed they'd be teaching us to use Adobe Illustrator. Turns out we're actually going to be learning to draw with Macromedia Freehand MX, which I had never even heard of. So, a question for the geeks out there: Is this program worth learning, and how different is it from Illustator, (with which I already have some basic experience).
