Fuck off.
Um no. Just a demo. Adobe’s website doesn’t have it.There is no demo available to the general public yet, just for developers..
That’s lovely. I’m not looking to steal it, I just want a demo. Adobe’s website does not have it to download.

Try http://www.fuckingthieves.con/ and look under app.
Cracked versions also available there
When Adobe bring the price of their products down to reasonable price, i.e. a couple of hundred dollars instead of "Microsoft" pricing, then people will stop for the most, downloading cracked versions. Yes, I know a few will continue to download pirated copies, but the majority who do not have programmers wages want the product at a decent price, not to pay for items like Gate’s mansion, or the Adobe boards Mercedes.

If he doesn´t need a Ferrari, why should he steal it ? Are you stupid or lowbrow?Chances are he doesn’t ‘need’ PS either – so why does he want to steal that? If he needs it, he wil find the money – Like I did for PS7. PS8 is out of the question, but thats their fault – I wouldn’t even want that piece of activated crap on my system.

The cost of an item, high or not, is in no way justification for stealing it. You can’t afford a Ferrari, why haven’t you stolen one of those?

And 20 years later, we will teach you not to lie on everything. And what you have are stealing now is muh much much more than the burger and many others you stole 20 years ago.

IOW, telling other a thief doesn’t mean you don’t steal *but* just a lying thief. Even if you pay for your Photoshop you still are a thief and no better than any other thief *except* lying. When you laying dead in your own coffin, you will become a dead thief (or "a poor lying dead thief").

I find it fascinating that I, and many people like me, would never think of shoplifting a computer program from Staples or a CD from HMV. Yet we think nothing of bootleg disks.
I wonder if those high prices — I saw Photoshop 7 for C$999 a couple of weeks ago— are designed to compensate the company for the revenue lost to the bootleggers.
I’m even more surprised that the software companies have not come up with a fool proof security system.

i think it’s arguable that most piracy really doesn’t hurt companies like adobe and ‘May’ even help, not that i’m advocating piracy, mind you. i can see where piracy of the windows opsystem hurts M$, but does anybody really want anything else they make???? would you pay $100 for IE when mozilla beats the snot out of it and is free.
the people who steal and use PS are not the ones who would break out $700 for a copy anyway – But they may have talent and produce work that only increases the "want" for the product they use.

You would be surprised how many companies buy ONE copy and then use that on several machines. Sometimes they do this because they are thrifty and it’s too easy, sometimes simply because people don’t even realise this is illegal. I suppose that this is why Adobe is using activation. Not to stop the real thieves, because they get the crack and still steal Photoshop anyway. Not to stop the home user, because he will still not buy Photoshop if he can’t copy it, but to stop the use of multiple installations of one legal copy in the business environment.
Me, if I didn’t have a $100 for FULL version of Photoshop when I purchased the scanner many years ago, I wouldn’t spend $600-700 (not even $400-500) to buy the first version of Photoshop, and wouldn’t upgrade to newer version etc.. So, I got my first Photoshop because the price was right, and upgraded (twice) because I got used with Photoshop that I don’t like to use other. Example, many people say Paint Shop Pro. is good (I think it may have more than what I need too), but since I always have Photoshop and know Photoshop pretty well, I wouldn’t use PSP even they give me for free, or they may have to pay me to use it (not because it’s bad but I will have to learn how to use it).
i use a pc so i’m running w98se.

You would be surprised how many companies buy ONE copy and then use that on several machines. Sometimes they do this because they are thrifty and it’s too easy, sometimes simply because people don’t even realise this is illegal. I suppose that this is why Adobe is using activation. Not to stop the real thieves, because they get the crack and still steal Photoshop anyway. Not to stop the home user, because he will still not buy Photoshop if he can’t copy it, but to stop the use of multiple installations of one legal copy in the business environment.
If you and Adobe just realize

So, I got my first Photoshop because the price was right, and upgraded (twice) because I got used with Photoshop that I don’t like to use other. Example, many people say Paint Shop Pro. is good (I think it may have more than what I need too), but since I always have Photoshop and know Photoshop pretty well, I wouldn’t use PSP even they give me for free, or they may have to pay me to use it (not because it’s bad but I will have to learn how to use it).
well i used PaintShop Pro 5 (i think it might have been 4) for a while and liked it. i reently got the test copy of PSP8 and threw it out before loading it completely – it demanded i use IE 6 – i will not buy nor will i use any more M$ products nor will i use any product that requires some other company’s shitty software ( other than a basic opsys)to work – how would you like it if you bought a car that didn’t come with tires and it would only work on one other company’s gass and tires even though that company’s products got 1/2 the milage and went flat easily.
i use a pc so i’m running w98se. i guess you could say it’s a pirated copy since it’s been installed on every box i’ve used since ’95 – i only bought the upgrade to win 95 which came with my first pentium box in ’95, i don’t buy computers i like to build them up myself ( usualy a piece or to at a time, i’ve still got a hard drive or 2 from before ’90, and some of the sys i’m useing now still has the ’95 parts in it) – i will not upgrade nor will i buy XP.
so both Adobe and JASC have lost a customer, when i finaly *MUST* get a new opsystem i’ll go to linux and gimp ect.

You would think that the way to deal with this would be
to find a few such companies and then sue them. The
resultant publicity would cause most other companies to
pay up. No company can stand that kind of negative
publicity.

True, but it might not be that easy. First they have to find them. Then they have to get evidence, without having a search warrant. How do you prove illegal use without having the right to enter the building and search the computers? Using spyware could be the answer, but spyware may be illegal and evidence based on spyware may not hold up in court. Adobe is a member of the Business Software Alliance. The BSA is already doing what you suggest, but apparently Adobe doesn’t think that’s enough.

It has been done in the past and usually was done by a
disgruntled (former) employee coming forward.
I’d be happier if I thought they’d tried to go that route first, because that’s where they are losing money.

I don’t understand. They HAVE tried to go that route first. Adobe has been a member of BSA for many years. Seems to me that they’ve decided it didn’t work, so now they have decided to do something else (activation).
oooooohhhhh.
so its ok to steal it.
but only if you need it.

On the other hand if you *don’t* need it then you are not exactly "stealing" anything from Adobe. Afterall what is there to steal if you never would have purchased it anyway?
And if you really learn to use it just because it looks interesting you are increasing the overall value the product to Adobe by making it more generaly usable in a work environment (where presumabley you boss would not dare steal his copy).

So I could steal a Ferrari since I’d never buy one?
How about
a Mac? I’d sure as shit never BUY one of those, so is it ok to steal that too?
What about a steamroller, I don’t have any
plans to buy heavy construction equipment, so it’s ok for me to steal one?

What a load of horse shit. Another sad, pathetic fool trying to justify theft. Fuck off, imbecile, your logic is crap.

Well but in the case of a car, stealing one would deprive its owner of its use.

That is like a car. When you steal one there is one less somewhere else.
What about a steamroller, I don’t have any
plans to buy heavy construction equipment, so it’s ok for me to steal one?
Same answer. Those things are all hardware and each one takes an effort to make.
And if you really learn to use it just because it looks interesting you are increasing the overall value the product to Adobe by making it more generaly usable in a work environment (where presumabley you boss would not dare steal his copy).
What a load of horse shit. Another sad, pathetic fool trying to justify theft. Fuck off, imbecile, your logic is crap.
I am just pointing out that there is a difference between hardware and software. The economics of buying and selling it are different and
also the economic results of certain software become widely available to people who are unwilling or unable to purchase it are different from a situation where, for example, an auto or computer showroom is looted.
Neither of us are fools, but you are teaching Sunday school while am trying to make a rather different point.
BTW I purchased my CS upgrade fair and square.

Nope, I never admitted to stealing a Mac, nice try though. Do continue with your obsession, it’s fairly amusing.
