Adobe announced this week that it has not tested and will not support its Creative Suite 3 line of products, including Photoshop CS3, on Apple's new Snow Leopard operating system.
Dumb move, Adobe. You just alienated a huge part of your install base on a product that only a year ago was still current. All in what seems like a ploy to force users to upgrade to the latest release. In a recession, no less.
I still use CS3 at work because I didn't see any compelling reason to upgrade to CS4. In fact, I didn't upgrade, in part, because I didn't like some of the things Adobe did in CS4's user interface. I made the recommendation, also, that the other people in my workgroup remain on CS3 as well.
And at home I still use CS2 because it works for my needs there. So what of that?
I think both products will still work fine on Snow Leopard (which I ordered yesterday). Adobe just won't help you if something doesn't work the way it should.
Is it me, or is Adobe feeling more and more like Microsoft every day?
