[OT] Adobe's pricing policy

[Jon Harvey]

Now I understand Adobe's marketing scheme. If they ship it to you, it
comes in a cardboard box.

"Buy Acrobat and get a free Xbox while supplies last." (apologies to
Microsoft).

Well, darn. I misread the original message and thought you were talking
about FrameMaker 10 coming out. I knew about Acrobat "X." Good luck
getting people to pronounce it as Acrobat 10. I still hear people say
OSX instead of OS 10. What a stupid naming idea. You just know some bug
will be found which will cause users to say that Acrobat X accidentally
deletes files and creates X-files. They're just asking for it. On the
other hand, version 30 will probably sell like hotcakes.

I hope the next version of FrameMaker stays with Arabic numerals instead
of converting to Roman ones. Sheesh.
