Adobe CS2 and backing up

[dnanian]

Hm. Well, if you use a Safety Clone and put Tiger on that (see my caveats about this elsewhere in the forum), the activation will likely be "OK", because it'll be on the original drive. I know this works with Macromedia's stuff, and it should work with Adobe too.

There's not much we can do other than complain to Adobe -- and other companies that do this kind of hardware-based lockdown -- that it's incredibly inconvenient for the user. Drives me nuts too.

I understand their concerns about piracy -- there are HUGE numbers of people pirating SuperDuper!, despite its reasonable cost -- but I just don't think this is a good way for them to go about dealing with it.
