JOHN DVORAK'S SECOND OPINION How Adobe can stop Microsoft Commentary: Attack with a Linux initiative

Adobe could port its Creative Suite, which includes Photoshop, Illustrator, In-Design and other subsystems, to Linux as a shot across Redmond's bow. Then the company should embrace Linux in-house and develop a complete, optimized Linux OS designed to run a high-performance version of its Creative Suite on Linux optimized for Adobe products, to be sold as a bootable bundle for multicore-workstation hardware.

Are you joking? Adobe port their prized jumbled mess of a suite to Linux? Adobe products have been optimized to run on Windows for years now.(source needed, but it really seems that away) They can't even get it right in OS X, why in the hell would they port to Linux, an open source dominated platform? Everyone that runs a Linux box either writes their own programs or runs programs written by a community and contribute by either adding to that code, or providing feedback. Why would a group of people that like to tinker with their OS and programs would want to invite a closed source based program to their arena? Yes it would make productivity as a business standpoint that much more lucrative, but Linux doesn't have any other such app, that I'm aware of that is closed source and widely accepted and distributed with Linux. I understand that the article claims that Adobe should write and package their own Linux distro, but doesn't this go against what Adobe believes about software, and what the Linux crowd believes about software?
If Adobe wanted to take on Microsoft, and why it is even a battle? They should focus their efforts on Apple. Get Adobe running in OS X well, and with all the hype of Apple and their products, it seems as it would be a win win situation. I've noticed that Adobe has dumped on the Apple camp as of lately, and not sure why, since Apple based system is what got Adobe to where they are now.

Apple - Mac OS X Leopard - Features - 300+ New Features

300+ New Features


A list of all new features for Leopard. Rumors guessing that it will either be out this Friday, or on the 26th. I wish I had a few extra bucks so I could upgrade. The added Boot Camp features, mainly being able to see and write to FAT32 partitions is worth the upgrade alone, I wish it did NTFS though.

300+ New Features

I wish Apple would hook me up with a free copy, just as Microsoft hooked me up with a free copy of Vista Business.

Macworld Drinking Game 2007 | 43 Folders


This is a pretty good one! A Macworld drinking game. If followed tomorrow could be a pretty good start to the day if one was to follow along, and wasn't at work for the day. I myself am kind of confused by all the attention and hype Macworld has been getting as of lately. I mean are the going to announce that Apple is going to end the war in Iraq or something?

Well cheers
