                    That's old news. If you want to start a monopoly-watch, look at Autodesk who just bought Discreet (3DS Max) AND ALIAS (Maya)

                        While I agree with your main point, that they put out a lot of quality software, they also put out Acrobat Reader, which is in many ways a terrible piece of software. Not just technically, but in terms of policies, including built-in spyware, reduced support for non-Microsoft browsers, patent abuse to restrict competitors, a DRM implementation that cripples the functionality of the software, branding that pops up uncontrollably, paid placement to pre-infect Windows PCs, difficulty disabling it, and so on. Hopefully they won't spread Acrobat Reader's worst features to Flash players.

                            Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
                            Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                      I agree that this sucks ... but reader itself does a great job for printers (keeps the optimal quality while making the display on screen very easy for clients to see).

                                      I always hated acrobat thought. I hope they don't do any crap like that in flash.
