I rewrote the 3D sphere v1 post in AS3. Coding in ActionScript 3 is not much different as far as the mathematics and functions goe. Though you will notice all the extra sythax and coding necessary to acheive the same effect. It's all worthit though; AS3 compiles using AVM2 (ActionScript Virtual Machine 2) and the code runs much much much faster. You can run both side by side and notice how fast teh AS3 is even when it has double the amount of clips to render.
