"Why the Adobe/FedEx-Kinkos Deal is the Best Thing that Could

How embarrassing for Gene... even Adobe can't maintain the ridiculous
assertion that Adobe's *middle-man* profit seeking is a good thing:
"Adobe will remove the “Send to FedEx Kinko’s” service and
functionality, currently available to US customers, in Adobe Reader
and Adobe Acrobat. The versions of Adobe Reader and Acrobat that are
scheduled to be released in October will not contain the feature. We
are implementing these changes as quickly as we can. However, we need
time to write and test the software. Adobe Reader and Acrobat are
critical pieces of software for tens of millions of customers and we
have to be sure the software we deliver is up to its usual quality."

Well done to the US printing industry for flexing its muscle and
kicking Adobe's arse. Photographers need to take note: *organised*
opposition to Adobe's gouging gets results.
If anyone should prefer to hurl insults or yell instead of
discussing, I
will ignore them completely.
Yeah. Whatever...
