i think adobe needs to get their head out of their a$$ if they want to truly make money. They need to enforce the "Triple Lock" process MS has adobpted for their registered users. As long as Adobe puts out a registration of 1 line of numbers... they will have million of pirated copys floating. MicroSoft has actually cut back pirating of their products so much in the last 3-4 years... their stocks when skyrocketing. MS has reported a 45-55% cut back of their pirated software floatin around.. What this triple lock thing Adobe needs to adopt? When you Buy the CD.. it comes with a 25 digit serial on the case.... you install the software.... enter the serial... the computer then reads your personal CPU.. and gives you a 1 of a kind, cannot work on any other cpu, 45 digit serial number. you then in turn Call MS 800 number and repeat this number to the phone rep... they in turn will give you a 20-30 digit number back to you. you enter the # in... and WAALAA... EZ..... if adobe startd doin this.... pirating of their software will shrink termendously.. but then again.. thats just what i think.
