Not the case. I use Frame 7 on a PC and a Mac for personal stuff.

I prefer Frame 7 because I find the Frame 9 interface cloying, annoying, a strain on the eyes and harder to use.   

I presume the new FM9 look and the pods were designed by fashionable people in Adobe marketing and corporate graphics with little or no user feedback before it was dumped on the market.

I realize that SW companies need a revenue stream.  I would be much happier paying an annual fee for using solid SW (even after purchasing it) rather than endure new releases with added features of marginal value and tarted up interfaces. 

This remark holds for MS as well as Adobe.

           will be twice as powerful, 10,000 times larger, and so 
           expensive that only the five richest kings of Europe will 
           own them.
