A product called Macromedia Flash (being used with web sites) became a go to for course development. We all remember the Java fight, between Netscape and Microsoft.

Microsoft Word converted to Flash? Macromedia Authorware and similar products. Macromedia Director. The Macromedia set typically would toss in Director, which created an equally impressive array of course capabilities, but a deep learning curve.
