    Adobe Not Releasing Universal Binaries Of Current Software

    Adobe have posted this question and answer PDF regarding Adobe products running on the new Intel-Based Macs. Looks like the Photoshop TV guys were right, a Universal Binary will not be available for CS2, Adobe will instead focus on making CS3 compatible with both Intel-Based Macs and the current Macs. CS3 could be available in the next 18 - 24 months if you look at Adobe's rack record for major releases.

    The Dreadful Embarrassment, Now In Purple!

    North Sydney sucks. It’s soul destroying to work there and the choice of food is appalling.
    And dude, it’s a Dell! Run! Run now! I only know one person who thinks Dell are any good and my mother has more tech-savvy than the bimbo in question
