SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING...BUT NOOOOOOO.... these two guys have to go on pointing fingers, name calling making bad jokes about each others mother and who does it benefit?...no one, no one but their bank books, and who do it hurt? US !!!!!! Come on people, grow up! stop the arguing between ourselves and start arguing at the heads of the Computer state... WE WANT UNIFORM FUNCTIONING APPLICATION THAT WILL RUN ON ALL MACHINES!!! I cant have a decent copy of ILLUSTRATOR from ADOBE because all they have is ILLUSTRATOR for MAC...they stopped at 4.1 For WINDOWS...regardless of anyones personal experiences, No company should make warez for One platform only...theres just too many of both outh there to be one sided kinda like trying to save the world. AND lest we forget, that bit about the apple powerbook giving the alien ship a Virus, that must mean the apple based systems on the invaders ships cant recognize a siste computer trying to do that to it.
