What they are trying to do is put an end to those who only infrequently upgrade and boost their bottom line tremendously in the process. In the past, you never needed to upgrade to every new version as you could always interface with other users fairly easily. Many of their apps have not had any real updates in a while. Dreamweaver is sorely lacking in so many areas - especially CSS. Photoshop is their flagship program, but most people only really need the features that came in versions 5 years back. They made poor design decisions on the new GUI for AI. Much of their new "enhancements" are bloated fluff, software developer masturbation. The other web apps are fun toys for the kiddies, but not the meat and potatoes the working folk need.
My last Adobe upgrade (CS5) cost me $650 and has served me well for 3 years. CS6 at $50 a month will cost me $3600. I do get a discounted initial rate, but this is only guaranteed for a year.
I only hope they get the backlash they deserve, at least from the larger prepress companies. The older pros I know don't like this, but the younger designers don't really know anything else and it allows them to come into the program with less money upfront.
I see CS5 being viable for a long time.
.... I highly doubt it would do anything to resolve any actual obesity.
I've made a point of exercising a lot lately... and I've found that my endurance has gone up considerably since I started, but I'm just as fat as I ever was. At least I'm not gaining any more weight... still undesirably obese though.
The only way to lose weight is to eat less than your body can burn.

Their now-in-beta HTML animation program. The development team is enthusiastic and receptive to producing a good program. I've been using it on projects and it's getting close to what LiveMotion (Edge's lead developer work on it) was for Flash - easy to use and very intuitive, unlike Flash, which requires good programming skills to use with any effect. Tumultco's Hype is also quite good, but slightly more limited at this time.
Dreamweaver continues to be a sad web program. Never updated with the better site management and GUI of the excellent Golive and very cumbersome to use.
They are working on Edge, an beta version HTML 5 animation authoring tool, but some smaller companies, like Tumultco's Hype have already taken the lead on this.
Adobe is becoming no longer the relevant company is once was to designers and creative.
Dish is the way to go for non-sports viewers. DirectTV has all their money tied up in sports fees, so regular viewers don't get the HD variety you do on Dish. You also pay more to subsidize the sports viewers.
Been my bone of contention with DTV for years, but wife hates the Dish user interface.
...an HTML 5 animation program, Edge. Also some nice up and coming options out there like Hype (great for simple animations). Don't mind getting away from Flash at all.
My only current issue with all the HTML 5 animation builds are the larger file sizes.
The burden of proof is on the one who makes the claim.
I cannot even watch these shows.
On the other hand, quantum physics leaves the realm of alternate planes interacting with ours, as well as the remnants of past energy entirely plausible.
I don't necessarily believe in "ghosts", but I do believe in science. We all all talking out of our butts at this point.
...by all the "legal" scalpers that control the market, Ticketmaster, Live Nation, etc. Great acts in small clubs where you can pay directly are where it's at.
"In SquareTrade's previous study comparing smart phone reliability from November 2008, we found iPhones to be far more reliable than Blackberrys and Palm Treos. We will be updating this report soon, and we'll have data on the latest Android phone models. It may yet be seen that even with the double glass, the iPhone has an overall failure rate that is still better than the competition."
More nuisance lawsuits - it's a big game

The customer is always the one who suffers in the end.
Quark lost to Adobe because of arrogance, poor customer service (remember Quark 5) and an expensive product. That's when I dumped them. They never rebounded.

...I sure loved (and used all the time) the service.
