How Adobe Launched a revolution – MercuryNews.com


Here’s a nice little article I just read by Ryan Blitstein over at Mercury News. Ryan writes about the history of Adobe and how it came “from $83,000 in revenue in 1983 to $83 million five years later” and continued to rise to “an expected more than $2 billion this year.” He also writes about how John Warnock and Charles Geschke “launched the desktop publishing revolution” starting with a little thing called PostScript and how they “were heavily involved in Adobe’s $3.4 billion acquisition of Macromedia”.

It’s a good little read. Check it out here.
