Oh dear... such a travesty. You have to delete 1 file and click on a checkbox to remove what is normally a useful tool for people who purchased Acrobat (if you don't want to look at it).
How is that malware?
What is the big deal?
Somebody call a waaaaaaambulance.
In OS X I hit command-p, which gives me the print dialogue, then I hit return to print.
To save I hit command-s to get the save dialogue and hit return to save.
Return is the key you are looking for to activate the glowing button on a sheet.
Not so impossible.

Cell-Phone Wars

Because people are not talking at normal volume on the cell phone. They are talking loudly to overcome background noise so the other person can hear them. They have to talk above everybody else - which is annoying to those who are being polite and speaking at a reasonable level.
And these loud-talking one-sided conversations are also annoying because you are forced to hear only one side, causing you to mentally (involuntarily) fill in the blanks. Which really ruins your concentration if you are trying to read.
Even when I wear headphones to cancel it out, I can still hear a half a dozen loud-mouthed cell-volume-talkers.
Maybe you talk quietly, or think you talk quietly but most people don't.
It is NOT the same thing as having a quiet conversation with another person. Not at all. People can talk quietly and use body language to communicate subtle meanings. Cell users have to talk loudly and verbosely to communicate. It is annoying and rude. If I'm sitting at B&N reading in a quiet cafe and some bozo calls his client and gives a frigging presentation, then calls his secretary to yell at her, then calls his wife to argue with her, then he gets 5 more calls with an annoying ringtone he doesn't answer for 3 rings. This is not the same as talking with a person in the flesh.
God those spine-chilling ringtones - for the love of god - that is the worst thing ever to be subjected to.
Multiply this by the number of cell people in the joint and it becomes unbearable. Quiet cafes are not chambers of commerce for tele-communications.
It comes down to self-absorbed, inconsiderate cell users at inappropriate locations and inappropriate behavior versus people who want a REASONABLE amount of peace and quiet.
If YOU think YOUR phone calls are MORE important than MY right to peace, then I say screw you, I'm turning on my blocker. If you aren't being loud and obnoxious I won't turn it on. But If I get Joe Blow and his whole life story over the cell - you better believe he is gonna get blocked.
BTW, I don't try to read the paper on a freeway or on an airport tarmac.
Why do people think publisher is good enough for offset print publishing? It just isn't. There ought to be a law. My god, publisher is worse than corel draw! Every printer I ever worked for ABSOLUTELY REFUSES to except publisher format. Nothing but problems at output.
One thing many people don't realize is that Adobe Illustrator can open.CDR files. You get separate layers for each page allowing you to hide and show each page one by one.
Effects and gradients usually come through as well as text.
But you also get the inherent flawed production values with it too (RGB drop shadows and lens effects embedded in CMYK layouts, etc..).
I just drop my client's MS Word docs into Indesign (for print/page layout). I get the tables and graphics and formatting all in tact. But I still get the super-extraneous tabs and spacing from the author trying to do formatting in Word (which makes more work for typesetters.. so if thats you, please stop).
Please don't call graphics people stupid for disliking Corel Draw. Until you have worked in a prepress shop and tried to output that format consistently and reliably to image-setters.
Sorry, but years of experience with that suite have taught me a thing or two about why it is so disliked. I won't bore you with the details, but I could go on and on. I've worked at both PC based, Corel based design firms as well as printers. Yes, many small businesses use it, much to their vendor's chagrin. Easy for the user, a nightmare for the people who print it (offset).
Must... resist...telling...horror stories (nobody cares but us hoity-toitys).
I for one am extremely happy Corel stopped developing Draw for Mac recently. Now, Mac based print shops have a good reason to refuse the format, just like *shudder* publisher.
Why are people complaining? So a 2 part article was posted on a subject (a hybrid *nix server OS) the author was interested in. So what? If one isn't interested in reading it, one could scroll down and read the other articles. It certainly takes less effort than posting a pointless complaint.
I suppose if this was a 2 part article on [insert favorite subject or OS] then it would be okay.
These conspiracy theories are sad. An ad? Karma whore? Zealot? Please. Give the author a break. Don't try to control the content with childish whining and name calling.

Try sending an HTML file to a printing press.
Then obviously whoever installs it does not know what they are dong.
I've set up dozens of print shops with every incarnation of OSX since 10.1 and NONE of their software "breaks".

Conduct your business at your office or at home.
Don't do it in my library, movie theatre, bookstore, coffee shop.
I will block these inconsiderate loudmouths.
Noise pollution should be outlawed.
There's plenty of worthless spam on the internet already.
