No business could survive without being interested in $$$. And no sensible
business wouldn't be in it for the $$$.
But to lump the souls of all members of a company into being interested in
only $$$ is foolish. I take it you've never been to a Macromedia-sponsored
event; met any of the amazing engineers, artists or designers that put these
products together. I absolutely know for a fact that 99% of the people that
work for Macromedia get up every morning wondering "what else can I do to
make this a more kick-ass product", not "how else can we suck more dollars
out of our customer's pockets without giving them something in return".
I think you need to go read up on Capitalism a little more. It ain't that
bad.
