Dear Adobe,
When I click on the red icon in my dock with the “Fl” in it, it means that I want to use your Flash CS3 program to create Flash content. It generally does not mean that I want to spend 20 minutes downloading and installing 300 megs worth of updates to Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw, Adobe Bridge, and Adobe Version Cue. Particularly since I don’t think I have actually used any of these products since I installed them. OK, Photoshop a bit, but the rest, never.
Furthermore, since it was my goal to use Flash CS3 this morning, it’s a bit of a kick in the face that I am then told to shut down Flash CS3 in order to continue installing the Camera Raw thing that I never use. Of course, if I choose not to do so, it’s most likely going to pop up the next time I try to run Flash CS3 and we’ll go through this again. I’ll take my chances, because I really do need to do some Flash work this morning. And I can probably get by without Camera Raw for … well, until I get a camera that I can use it with.
Thanks,
Your biggest fan.
