>> Adobe should announce after cs5 that cs6 will be pc and linux only

That would be cool.  However, Adobe reacting by completely pulling its
product line from Mac OS would have their stockholders in an uproar.
Plus, as my co-worker Matt pointed out, Adobe themselves are primarily a
Mac OS shop.  They have a "deliver to as many platforms as possible"
strategy - like you see with the Flash player on multiple desktop OSs
and mobile devices.  I think Adobe will throw some punches, as they have
been, but they have to be careful, and pulling their Mac OS product line
is not something you will see them do.  Businesses are 99% motivated by
profits.

Adobe would never pull their Mac product line - it's a cash cow for
them.  Doing something just for spite in the business world is not
really all that smart.  That's why you see companies who are both suing
each other and partnering on things, like Adobe and Apple have done in
the past.  What you may see happen is consumers getting tired of not
having Flash on their iPhone and switching to an Android phone.  But as
for the Flash export to iPhone OS, consumers could care less what
language it was built in, they just want a good product.
