Adobe is really feeling threatened now, no doubt about it. They are starting to see an eventual Flash-free web as a real possibility. I wonder if Lotus, Borland, CompuServe, and the other mini-monopolies of their day saw it coming, or just blithely rested on their laurels until they were irrelevant. I was in the tech scene back then, but without something like the internet to keep us informed, it was hard to know what those companies were up to.
