Thank you, Adobe.  Thank you.

Yes, I know that this isn't a grammar problem.  But, I work in I.T. and useful error messages make troubleshooting much easier.  At the very least, the error should provide a starting point.  Apparently Adobe's starting point is invisible.  This is fine if you're an H.

OK, Mr. Jobs, I think I agree with you when it comes to offering support for Adobe products.

So, in this case, I decided that the complete lack of grammar is, in fact, a grammatical faux pas.

I fully support the use of puns and plays on words, and this one would have been great. If only they hadn't lost control of their apostrophe. It's such a shame when punctuation is allowed to run wild.

Once again, this would have been produced by professionals and would have gone through some kind of proofreading procedure; not a good procedure, but some kind of procedure nonetheless.

The Wizard of Zo? Really???? No, I didn't flip the photo. It really looked like this.
