Note the total lack of mention of support for **ANY** UNIX-based operating system! This leaves users of the following OSes out in the cold: - Solaris - Linux (any flavor) - BSD (any flavor) Mac OS X ships in 12 days, and Adobe can't commit to it for *next quarter*. Contrast this with a number of other graphics software companies, who are making beta versions of their software for OS X available already.... If Adobe isn't careful, the Acrobat 5 upgrade is going to be about as popular as the WindMillEd upgrade. We've got the OS X public beta on one of the Macs at home, and *even in its beta stage*, it's more stable than any version of Windows I've seen in the last eight years. Once OS X ships, I'm not buying ANY Mac software that won't run native under OS X. --Ananda Stevens ananda@sdsi.com <mailto:ananda@sdsi.com> ** To unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@omsys.com ** ** with "unsubscribe framers" (no quotes) in the body. **
