Microsoft May Acquire Adobe - Rumours

[zanzabar]

I do.

You want to use Photoshop? Buy a PC.

You want YouTube to work? Buy a PC.

You want to use Premier and Dreamweaver? Buy a PC.

Eliminate Macintosh compatibility of all of the productivity software that people buy Macs to use? People no longer buy Macs...

Genius.

you cannot buy adobe then kill mac support if u are MS that would put in an antitrust suit again, u could make it work better on windows or u could get better support for mobile

[ripken204]

or MS could incorporate flash into every adobe product, causing steve jobs to have a heart attack

[alfaunits]

I see this as helping people not spend loads of money on overpriced hardware to do the same thing
Go MS! Buy that Flashee

I do.

You want to use Photoshop? Buy a PC.

You want YouTube to work? Buy a PC.

You want to use Premier and Dreamweaver? Buy a PC.

Eliminate Macintosh compatibility of all of the productivity software that people buy Macs to use? People no longer buy Macs...

Genius.

And yet microsoft is the biggest software developer for the mac platform.

it will be not fun for MS if Google buys Adobe

or Apple.

there is no way even if microsoft bought adobe they would be allowed to do that. the U.S have some pretty strict laws with doing away with buisness competition and microsoft would be prosecuted in a heart beat if they tried what you said above. forget the U.S, im sure the european union would not like it and do the same

not possible
robots dont have hearts

[ripken204]

not possible
robots dont have hearts

i suppose he is more of a cyborg.
if he did have a heart attack i am sure that he could easily go and steal a new heart from a needy child

i have no trouble to believe it

[Tomasis]

that would truly be one of the most terrible buyouts

do you mean that google doesnt need adobe?

Agreed.

I personally use Photoshop and Dreamweaver on a daily basis. PC's have offered compatibility and flexibility as a workstation in the corporate environment since the dawn of the technology age. More recently I see and hear more and more of the "Oh you're a designer? You must use a Mac!" Thanks to their recent PR and marketing that is. Its frustrating to see Apple capitalize so much off the ignorance of others. Especially when it spreads as far as business purchases and affairs.

ya it is quite amazing how many people thing design/graphics/audio=mac
i dont think there is a single pc in the liberal arts building at my college.

if you are only using the adobe suite then i dont see why so many ppl think that you must use a mac... i am someone who uses a few adobe products on a very regular basis

Naturally, the collaboration will enable flawless work of Flash and Windows.[/url]

Flash doesnt work well on its own, how is combining it with windows going to make it flawless?


Adobe is the epitomy of overpriced bloat. Even more so than MS.
