Adobe taking a pass on Macworld 2009 exhibition booth
Infinite Loop —
[image] Macworld 2009 is coming up in almost exactly a month, so the schedule and most of the exhibitors are ready to go.

9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence —
While the economy is of course a concern for many companies (especially Adobe who are handing out pink slips), we have to wonder if these four companies might have had prior knowledge about Steve Jobs' absence from Macworld before the general public knew. Google, who significantly downsized their booth just a week before Apple's announcement, shares Eric Schmidt, their CEO with Apple's Board of Directors.
