Truth be told, I was always enamored walking into Apple's main lobby at One Infinite Loop where they have their Emmy displayed in a glass case for all to see. Apple won that Emmy for the development of FireWire. The next time I walk into Adobe's headquarters in San Jose, I hope to see their Emmy proudly displayed in the lobby as well.

Well done, Adobe. Well done.
