Well, that would certainly ruin my day if that were to happen.

I don't know. They had a string of huge layoffs last summer, and haven't
really done much "new" stuff recently. They did just produce a version
of shockwave for OS-X, but there's still no Dreamweaver, Fireworks or
Freehand.

Adobe is killing them on the products front, IMO.

It could happen, but I don't know enough to wager on it.
