Why won't they all join togheter and form a super company that would create solid and cool stuff for the people?

I blame all of you who kept posting unfounded negative shit about Apple/ Steve Jobs and acted like it was the end of the world because the iPad didn't run Flash.
Adobe read all that shit and thought they had an opportunity to try and sideline Apple. And now thanks to you, we have PhotoOffice® Expression 2Advanced Excel Cuntfucker® Home Edition® to look forward to. Thanks. Thanks a lot.

I hope that Microsoft ban all Adobe applications from Apple computers .. no more Photoshop -> hahah .. take that Jobs.

- You guys seriously want to be forced to use Windows? *face, palmedukit
- yep, quite an emotional and bitter response huh? If that's not fanboy then I don't know what is.kpl

Good thing I decided to move to Ubuntu/Linux years ago. Depending on Microsoft, Apple and Adobe was driving me nuts.
Gimp and Inkscape aren't that bad when you get used to them. In fact, Inkscape is awesome if you also code stuff. And being able to deploy Javascript sites using a simple texteditor is just heaven.

In all seriousness though, I can't really see this happening.
The new Windows phone OS launches next week. How would acquiring Adobe and then having to go through the long process of integrating the companies' products help them compete with Apple and Google? It seems like it would slow Microsoft down at a critical moment more than anything else.
- it'll be like the Danger acquision. but an even bigger clusterfuck.kpl

Oh, please let it be true. The bloated, insecure buggyness of Microsoft combined with the bloated, insecure buggyness of Adobe. This would cause Flash to be banned by most sane organisations on security grounds, problem solved.
All we need to hear is that Apple have a skunkworks version of Photoshop in the pipeline and the world becomes a better and happier place.
Regrettably, as ukit said, even Microsoft can't be that stupid.

This would be a bit like General Motors buying Ford - it would be good for investors for about 5 seconds, then the company crashes and burns.
No one at either company could be this stupid... I hope.

I hope Apple will release their version of Photoshop-like software they had been secretly working on in their basement for 20 years, just like they worked on Intel-running OSX.
Considering that they have Final Cut and Aperture, how unlikely is this?

Apple is trying to turn the internet into a packaged, glossy, cheesy giant itunes store for the current corporate status quo. Apple fans don't see it because they are dazzled by their shiny new products. I'd rather switch my alliances to Microsoft or Google any day of the week. Bring it on.

Im siding with the company that looks after my industry wether it's microsoft or Apple, i'm not bound by shiny machines but support for what I do to make a living. I am a user of Macs for 15 years, but they are arses, if you ask me they don't look after there best customers - us.
