For those who do not follow United States comics, sorry about this.

Need a little humor once in awhile. Could this title be true? Consider:

Adobe released their CS web authoring software (GoLive) after removing an important capability that was in the previous, older package. "Dynamic Content will now be supplied by 3rd parties". Small loss of existing customer base.

Adobe has lost at least a few good Photoshop customers with their "activation". After all, what is another small customer base loss compared to all those casual copiers (that just might be learning how to use PS) that they are stopping? These people might not buy the product anyway but Adobe IS GOING TO STOP all the casual copying. Revenue? Who cares about revenue?

Hopefully the Adobe top manager has now trimmed his hair to include the two tufts that look somewhat like horns. I only hope for you faithful employees that the HR director didn’t come along in the deal.

It is a nice day and a nice life. Lighten up a bit, everyone.

Re: Revenue? Who cares about revenue?

Probably everyone who works at Adobe. The management want to maximize revenue for the shareholders. The employees want to see good revenues to stablize their jobs.

If you don’t like it … GIMP.

Why do you?

If there’s something with the product, not meeting your expectations or needs you just change product; why care about the revenue of Adobe. Or are you a shareholder?

Won’t the activation "issue", and the resulting loss of customers, inspire the competition?
