You know, it's the little bits of "lore" that really make Mac fandom fun. The stories of how Mac resellers all over the country had "Midnight Madness" sales on March 24, Mac OS X Day, where people lined up for hours to get their copies, and where Humvees pulled up in front of Elite Computers just before midnight to drop off the first software boxes for sale.
And now it's this stuff about behind-the-scenes machinations between Steve and Adobe, where all we can imagine is the Photoshop design execs strapped down to a spinning table with little electrodes attached to their nipples, or maybe pinned to a wheel-of-fortune propped up against the wall where they spin for all eternity while Steve flings little daggers at them.
Sure, real life is never as fun as it is over on AtAT. But it's fun to imagine that it is.
