How Adobe can stop Microsoft (MarketWatch)

John C. Dvorak
suggests
a new Linux strategy for Adobe.
"
Microsoft has attacked Adobe before by adopting TrueType font technology over PostScript around 1989, an announcement that sent Adobe founder John Warnock into shock. Fear of Microsoft may have resulted in the fast-paced and never-ending upgrade cycle of Adobe Photoshop -- out of real concern that Bill Gates and company might develop a real competitor.
Now we have this Silverlight situation, and Adobe has to do something other than run away from Microsoft. It should attack Microsoft with a Linux initiative."
