Quality over Quantity, please.
Dear Adobe,
I have an issue, but it's not necessarily a single thing I can put my finger on. Adobe apps are buggy, and that's to be expected. The problem is how buggy they are. I'm specifically talking about running them in OS X. I think Adobe needs to slow down, quit cranking out poor quality apps and focus on improving the many, many little things. Making the apps compatible and consistent with OSX's native conventions is a big one. Copy/pasting between photoshop and flash doesn't preserve transparency?? I'm an as3 dev. A little off-topic, but haXe is compiling bytecode with better performance than your compiler. Isn't that kinda embarrassing, being that you guys sorta invented the AVM? Squeezing performance out of as3 apps is kinda like deving html for ie6: it sucks. Well-made as3 apps are complex enough without having to worry at every step whether it'll run ok. When HTML5 is in common use within the next few years, I'd be a little worried about the future of flash. Just a few unorganized thoughts.

Inappropriate?as3 font embedding: do you really hate your developer's that much Adobe? every time, every project, with no exceptions, we have to go through the hell of getting font variants to work. OTF? TTF? try, compile, error, tweak, try, no error, run, looks like crap, tweak, error, go find a new font file, grab torrents of font libs to see if another version works, because even tho i legitimately own the font i need to go rip it off somewhere else, try, maybe works. 8 hrs wasted every time, every project.
I’m effing pissed

Inappropriate?I'm not a big MS fan, refuse to dev in windows, but C# is amazing.

Inappropriate?more failure: in flash 9, mac MOUSE_WHEEL events never worked. Adobe has since released flash 10. Still, mac MOUSE_WHEEL events don't work. Seriously?
I’m WTF
