I can see this not being a huge problem for those who just have one computer and one printer. But it's really bad for business with many companies and labs who run drivers and systems that are dependent on up-to-date software (ie: snow leopard or CS4 ACR, etc). It's a huge issue. The questions become: What should I upgrade first? CS3 or 10.5? If I need new ACR will I have to downgrade the OS and loose software that works best in Snow? If I go to snow and have to upgrade CS3 how does this square w/ my lack of a budget?
It gets even worse when you are managing/running mixed labs that include Final Cut, Aperture, and Lightroom along w/ Adobe Creative Suite and multiple Epson printers and grayscale profiles.
In the end, it will just hurt sales of Snow Leopard (and thus any software coming out that requires Snow.) And it will also hurt sales of Adobe software (not as much Epson.)
So it's in Apple's best interest (everyone's really) to get this stuff fixed pronto. Not just in combo updates!!!!!!! Is it possible to fix the color issues outside of major system updates? Do we wait another 4 months to get CS3 printing in Snow?
Also, does anyone have a manual hack/fix for CS3 still printing dark in 10.6.3? I figure Apple just doesn't want to deal with the CS3 issue. But there's probably more CS3/Snow Leopard users out there than CS4/Snow Leopard. A lot of people leapfrog Adobe versions. Because the OS introduced the color change, I think it's the OS that should be fixed. No?
