« HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN? | Main | Adobe's installer programmers are morons, pt. 3 »
So even though I already had Acrobat 8 on my machine, somehow, in fucking up the installs of CS3, the glorious rotting shitpile that is the Adobe installer managed to fuck up my Acrobat 8 install too, so I can't use it until I go through and validate fucking CS3.
A simple competent installer. That's all I want. A simple, competent, installer. Why is it that Adobe can create fucking Photoshop, but can't manage to create a competent installer? Is that secretly harder than Photoshop? Is it actually simple to write CS3, but only $DEITY$ can write a good installer?
Fucking idiots, I should bill them for the time I've wasted on this bullshit.

That's a good point.
It also idiotic that it prompts you with a "disc 1 of 1" progress bar. If it's one disk then don't say anything!

Does this mean that we get another blog post from John Nack explaining why this is all Apple's fault and about the heroic efforts that have been put forth by Adobe to work around all those problems.
I love those.

Actually, Nack's reaction was one along the lines of "You're right, our installer kinda sucks, and I've got nothing"
