Yesterday i downloaded Illustrator 10, i tried it, it has a nice features but yet it does not have the old Xara & corel Features(ex. interactive transparency, and fills)
the blend tool is ugly in AI and manythings.

Why then CorelDraw or XaraX is not the professional choice ?
( more artists use Adobe Products)
Are Adobe smarter than others?
Is it because it is American product?
or what?

I want to know your opinion.

My opinion, Adobe is smarter ( not because it has features others don't, it is the oposite) They are smart in Advertising and marketing, they pay a lot of money for it>

Almost everyone In kuwait, when they want to drink a soda they say i want pepsi ,Pepsi means soda, we are programmed to say

This is not a joke.

person 1 : "i want pepsi"
person 2 :" what kind?"
person 1: " 7up please"


maybe that is the case with Adobe !!!!!!!!!!!

I think CorelDraw 10 And XaraX is much better than AI 10.
