Could be, but why would it be there in the consumer version we all have. I have Pro now, but this machine came with Home. I can see that the Pro edition would have it, but is it in the Home version? I no longer have the Home version to check.
We already know that volume licensing applies to Enterprise, and that it's also been for companies with less than 250 employees, so I wouldn't go so far as to say it's for Enterprise only. There could be a new type of volume licensing for those smaller companies on the horizon.
Agreed 100%.
That would be me passing you up and heading for some form of Linux! :)
The only software I subscribe to is the Microsoft Office Suite, and that only because it makes sense for me to have it on multiple computers and tablets. I have always upgraded Office with each new version anyway, so the subscription is less expensive in the long run.
I will not subscribe to Adobe, nor any other subscription based software as long as there are comparable free programs out there. Nuance just dropped off my list after my second purchase of PaperPort 14 had been installed too many times on the same computer!
If they charge me (non enterprise), I would not pay! And then I would consider ReMix or other OS's!
The problem with Linux, is a lot of distros can't play protected content even with tweeks. I really don't know how safe it is to run Firefox & Adobe flash using wine. There is no root(sudo) prompts. I don't if you can get windows virus in wine or not. You can install Google chrome in Linux but only the 64 bit version.
Firefox doesn't play protected content in Linux like it does in windows. The Linux version of Firefox doesn't have the primetime content decryption module provided by adobe systems incorporated. The workaround was/is to install the windows version of Firefox & windows version adobe flash plug-in manually using wine. That way you can watch protected content in Linux.
