Story: UK will pay £1,000 more for Adobe CS3
Adobe rip-off
Adobe's prices hike in European and their excuses for them , that they have to put on shows (like they do in the USA, eh ? ) or translating (e.g. from English into English ? ) or the costs of selling in Europe (identical software downloaded from the same server in the USA ? ) are proving to be giving them a very bad reputation in Europe. A comparison of prices can be seen here:

There is a very popular petition at:

which I urge anyone looking at this thread to sign and get others to do so as well.
It appears that the backlash is making Adobe very nervous at their HQ, so the pressure needs to continue. One suggestion is that they be informed about the discontent at their promotion event in London in June.
