There are so many other examples...
All true.

By the way, if Adobe had bothered to actually code premiere for the Mac instead of producing a weak Windows port, Apple wouldn't have bothered...
I know a die hard Windows user who used to work with Dell and he bought a Mac solely to escape from Premier. Final Cut was so much better in his estimate.
If I am not mistaken, wasn't Adobe one of the big companies who dragged their feet with Rhapsody, forcing Apple to delay the OS X launch? Wasn't Adobe the very same company who turned down Apple's offer to develop consumer media applications for the Mac platform (which directly led to the creation of iLife)? Isn't Adobe the same company who shipped sub par Flash plug-ins for years (on every platform, especially non Windows, but even Windows Flash has been relatively bad until recently)?
