You must be joking.

The success of Adobe, and equivalent junk corps, has nothing
to to with cleverness.  The success of Adobe (and its ilk) is
due solely to the idiocy of their user base.

Adobe's clientele, poor dumb bastards all, managed once in
their lives to slowly learn the proper sequence of "buttons"
to click and now they are stuck forever.  It is literally
impossible for them to learn anything else. 

It may at first be difficult to believe that such idiots exist,
and in such large numbers, but they do.

Even more difficult to believe is that a lot of such idiots
are well compensated ($$$$).
