[Editor Press] In fact, Microsoft and Adobe's relationship is complex, so Microsoft's Bill is impossible to make any advice to Adobe's J Ohn. The following Wonderful Wen is just a well-known blogger Hu Yiro's acquisition of Adobe spends $ 3.4 billion to acquire Macrom Edia. A comment on his personal blog, funny, interesting and attractive. Sohu IT made this article from the editorial idea from the people, and specially issued this article for the industry colleagues. On the day of this surprised merge, Sohu IT also contacted nearly 30 industry-known media people to express the view ("Industry people talking about Adobe acquisition Macromedia events), welcome to read and make your valuable comments. Bill Gates gives the five-point opinion of Adobe 1. You can only acquire MM (Macromedia) today. If 10 years ago, HTML and FLASH published a trend, you use Macromedia's webpage deliberately and my IE, I will be embarrassed, then I am afraid of Netscape. If your Flash and Apple's QuickTime whole me, I may really don't know how Windows Media should do. Of course, John classmates, Adobe now has a chance, because I am looking at Firefox all day, I am very nourishing in my heart. 2, you keep photoshop, etc. such a bunch of treasures, but you are not useful. John, you know what I want to say. I want to say, Xerox is a great company, but it is too great, it is crazy to encourage innovation, and any innovation is adopted by others, others are successful, and Xerox can't work. Xerox invented the GUI (graphical user interface), I have succeeded in STEVEN JOBS; Xerox invented the mouse and contributed to everyone; XEROX invented Ethernet, 3Com success. You call for each corner of Adobe, but these constant good ideas come from a bunch of closed, high, professional-fever-grade Adobe people, some good ideas will die, old brothers. For example, Photoshop, such a good product (privately said, it is really good than my windows and office families :-), enjoy such high user amounts of install_based (installation) products, I am strange why you don't have ADO A online service of Be.com is linked. Even if it is a picture blog, even if it is a service similar to Flickr. In fact, the old brother, you are also very nb in terms of audio, video and animation, I am envious, but I am unfortunate that you don't contact the Online Service. do you know? I am jointly tie up Windows, Office, Develop Tools and Msn.com, and have risen, including a variety of possible monopoly, but I still do it, it seems not bad. .Com era, there is no competition in Adobe.com, I am very lonely. 3, you should specialize in taking a "pirated marketing" course, Microsoft free teaching. I know that you will definitely don't like to listen, but I still have to say. Brothers, corporate applications and personal applications are not one thing, combat piracy, engage in enterprises, putting the enterprise to die, this is nothing.
