Got myself Adobe Creative Suite 4 for a dollar. It’s on my
computer now. The joys of piracy and
living in a country whose economy depends on it.
It’s a right stroppy little piece of software. The install
menu rudely reminds you to switch down all computer tasks and go make a tea
while you wait. It also berates your system for its laughable weakness. The
cheeky little bugger.
I’m now painstakingly learning InDesign, Photoshop and the
like. Haven’t even attempted Illustrator yet. I got myself a nice little book
down at the Communist store – this one an import, definitely not pirated. It
tells you where to stick your mouse and what not, how to press buttons on
keyboards etc. It’s downright insulting if you ask me. I should be preparing
for teaching tomorrow, instead I’m fiddling around with little pointless
projects.
Fool am I.
