[Hidden-tech] Adobe Creative Cloud Suite

[Rich Roth]

This point about losing access unless you keep paying go online at least once every 30 
days is a key issue and does change the meaning of the monthly payment,
that is how I read the offer - does anyone who has the server confirm that ?
I'd suprised there isn't a 'buyout/lockin' once you have subscribed for a certain number 
of months.

Also - let me note that a number of people have commented without really knowing the Adobe 
offer -- these is not a cloud based service offering, like
google aps - this is an alternative way to get the standard desktop adobe aps like 
photoshop - they are still desktop aps.
It does point to the name being confusing.
AND please if you are going to comment - please comment from first hand knowledge or, at 
least, check your facts carefully first.
