Sorry Shane, crossposted.

I hear you, but at least be thankful you don't live in the UK.  The only reason I'm without an income right now is because I refuse, point blank, to set up my own company in this slimey 'shaft-the-poor' shit-hole of a country.  As soon as I get out of here it'll be 'all systems go' for me, but until then, I have to get by with no income, no support, no car - just a rapidly decaying paltry amount of savings.

Even faced with that, just as with Apple, I wouldn't buy an Adobe product if a gun were pointed to my head.  There are things that the human race simply should not tolerate under any circumstances, and the greed and manipulation both of these companies practice should be tolerated by no man, and certainly won't be by this one.
