No, hardmac.com did not become a finance-oriented website during the night, but we mentioned this news to illustrate how Adobe benefits from the CS3, and especially from the release of the Universal binary Mac version. For years, Adobe application on Mac had the tendency to become slower and slower while hardware were running faster. The CS3 has been a major improvement, and many Pro users took advantage of CS3 to purchase an Intel-based Mac.
Unfortunately those record results for Adobe have also been possible thanks to worldwide customers, especially Europeans, who had to pay the same application up to twice the price found in USA. Let's hope that Adobe will decrease the price of the CS3 in outside USA.
