Adobe Says PCs Are Preferred

Posted by pudge on from the that-must-have-cost-ms-a-lot-of-money dept.

Father Of Free Choice writes "Abobe has picked Windows as the preferred platform for running Photoshop, After Effects, and Illustrator. I don't know how many Mac people this will upset, but given the large hold Apple has on design pros and film, this seems like a bad move on Adobe's part."

    Every platform switch is money in the bank for Adobe.

    Personally, I'm surprised Adobe has kept developing for the Mac (even considering the core Mac demographic are designers/publishers) when the Apple market is so small and Apple itself is so damn difficult to work with. Supporting the Mac has got to be costing Adobe money, considering the development dollars invested compared to the number of installed units out there.

    Just my $0.02US...

  2. What a troll topic! by trash+eighty · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    The webpage doesn't say Adobe "prefer" PCs at all, that happens to be a word in the page URL, if the page was pcfish.html it wouldn't mean Adobe thought PCs were fishy now would it. Seems to me all this topic is is a huge troll.
