That was a pretty good read. It would be nice to see a big Apple-partner, like Adobe, stand up and say “enough is enough”. Apple’s PC business would go down in flames pretty quickly if Adobe were to stop developing for Mac. For example, if Adobe announced that the advanced features of CS6 would only be available for Windows, and that Mac customers interested in the latest version of Photoshop should think about Boot Camp’ing it, I think that would show that Adobe is serious.
Sure, Adobe probably makes nearly half their money from Mac users, and wouldn’t want to lose out on those sales. I don’t think they’d have to; Apple would probably blink first. If Apple were to stand their ground, it would just be further proof that Apple no longer cares about their computer business (which has basically been on-hold since the launch of the iPhone).
