    The Adobe CEO kept referring to the "creative cloud" as the future. What's the difference between tomorrow's "creative cloud" and (for lack of a better descriptor) today's "non-creative cloud"? Besides pricing.

    Ahh . . . thanks Keith. So I guess Adobe is hoping that people will rent (thus paying more over the long haul.) And just like paying rent for an apartment, one never builds up equity, or owns the apartment outright, and the landlord (AKA Adobe) can raise the rent whenever he wants and for however much he wants.

    Corporate/Legal two step, if they are asked a question they don't want to answer, they just talk about something else.
    It makes them look guilty. But, what could he say... 'We've been screwing the Australian market for years and are going to keep doing it for as long as we can. Next question..."
