I did note that "paper" newspapers can usually find a backup printing
plant.
The way I read it, along with all the tools used to create the digital
editions, the Adobe outage took the digital "printing plants" off-line
as well and there were no backup site they could turn to.

Here's why I think it's a BIG problem for Adobe:

Major newspapers who rely on the product for their online editions
couldn't publish yesterday.
Wow. Just... wow. Our local rag managed to get a paper printed for
the Feb 23rd 2011. Even a major earthquake that destroyed their
central city office didn't stop them.
I'll be interested to see what comes out of this debacle.
IMHO Adobe are getting their just desserts, I'm still bitter about
them turning off the activation service for some old Macromedia
software of mine.
Cheers, Dave
