I'm a graphic designer, after spending 2 yrs at art college I got my first job and had to put away my markers and pens as DTP was taking hold and I've never looked back. That was 1988, 20 years on I'm working late on a job using almost exclusively Adobe products, but I just stopped working and watched this in full, captivating, the founders of Adobe, a fascinating story. Visionary pioneers, they made history. Interesting to hear JW's opinion of Gates & Microsoft and his favour of the Mac.

it would be great if they talked to their engineers and ask them to ake the documentation in the flash API a little bit more user friendly!!! >:(

Maybe they'll get around to fixing the documentation whenever they figure out how make it stable. Give it another decade or so.
