Well, to be fair, does any version of Office before 2011 have the PowerPC code removed? If not it isn't a fair comparison to expect all Adobe products before CS5 to be the same as the latest version of Office. But I suppose Lion will provide Adobe with a new marketing strategy with CS6. "Update now so all your Adobe software will work with OS X Lion!" I consider most of this bickering kind of silly. To move forward you sometimes have to make OS changes that break legacy apps. To move forward you sometimes have to drop support for legacy apps. Both Apple and Adobe created this list of issues and I bet there are other applications out there with similar problems. Well, maybe not as many. It's just you're not hearing about them because of the silly fight between Apple and Adobe. It's like dealing with children who dislike each other and the fanboys are acting like the mob of children that eggs them on. Granted, there's little excuse for CS5 versions of Adobe software to fail badly when there was time to prepare. But Adobe traditionally sells major patches as point releases or new versions. Full price for CS5.5? Really?
