It's my belief that, if they understood the problem, they wouldn't have to
utter it in this forum, they'd fix it. I'm reasonably convinced that the
problem is mindless corporate decision-making, and the Adobe people who
understand that fact cannot utter it if they want to keep their jobs. In
politics as in business, the need for constant spinning is almost always a
byproduct of stupid decisions that must be papered over.
