I'm glad Warnock and Geschke didn't already have the ideas of the modern Adobe in their heads. If they had, the LaserWriter would have required a monthly cloud subscription, and if the customer cancelled, both the printer and everything they had already printed would vanish.

I also think that Illustrator 88 was a great improvement on its successors.

I stole a line from C.A.R. Hoare: `[Algol 60 was] a language so far ahead of its time, that it was not only an improvement on its predecessors, but also on nearly all its successors.'
