Something to keep in mind about the Apple-Adobe tiffAdobe screwed up
After Steve
Jobs took over and he was charting out a new course with OS X, Apple reached out
many times to Abode to introduce a native version of their suite for the new OS.
Adobe never committed – standing by its prediction that OS X would never
gain momentum or share and it would ride the Windows ascendancy. Adobe thought
that it had the dominant hand and displayed its arrogance in
public.
— Sorry Adobe, you screwed yourself There's more. Way to go, Adobe! Here's a software development company whose "talent acquisition system" software, apparently, doesn't even work on standards-based browsers. Further, a developer at Adobe—a company which was started by ex-Apple employees and became a big company through, initially, selling Mac-only software—is urging Apple employees to apply for jobs through a system that doesn't support Macs. — The Devil's Kitchen, Adobe is hiring (Mac users need not apply) No, I am not saying that Apple is perfect and can do no wrong. I'm pointing out that it is a PR battle, and Apple's "closed standards" don't quite mean what you've been told. Oh, by the way. There isn't a single handheld out there right now that actually runs Flash. Learn to read between the lines.
