Adobe CEO Chizen wants some Leopard. Hey, us too!

The Leopard, she’s a comin’. But just because we’re still expecting to see Apple’s next kitty cat next month doesn’t mean that all parties are as sanguine about the prospect. Today Adobe CEO Bruce Chizen said that the Adobe’s Creative Suite software has not been fully tested with Leopard, and as such may experience a period of incompatibility when the OS is released.
“CS3 hasn’t fully been tested under Leopard,” Adobe Chief Executive Bruce Chizen told Reuters in an interview. “If it doesn’t work, we will make the necessary adjustments.”Waaaaaaiiiit a minute. If I’m not mistaken, nobody’s seen a final version of Leopard; it’s still in development. Perhaps they’ve once again gotten confused about just how powerful Time Machine is.He said Adobe has not received a final copy of Leopard with which to test its software.
Yeah, we know Creative Suite is mission critical software for a large portion of the market, but it seems to me that this is kind of a big ol’ non-story. Presumably they’ve got access to development builds like everybody else, and while they’re at the whims of Apple in terms of changes, it’s not like Apple can magically conjure a final version of Leopard up just for Adobe to use.

Ha ha, sanguine
"You sanguine about the kinda reception we're apt to receive on an Alliance ship, Captain?"
"Absolutely. What's 'sanguine' mean?"
"Sanguine. Hopeful. Plus, point of interest, it also means 'bloody.' "
"Well, that pretty much covers all the options, don't it?"
Why don't they just join the ADC and get a developer copy?
He kinda looks like Steve Jobs in that picture. I don't understand how you need the GM to make your applications compatible. Leopard has been feature complete since WWDC 07.
