"Operating systems come with cultures as much as codebases. I was forcibly reminded of this fact over the holidays when several family members and neighbors press-ganged me into troubleshooting their Windows computers. Although none of us had any formal computer training, and I know almost nothing about Windows, I was able to solve problems that baffled the others - not because of any technical brilliance, but because the free software culture in which I spend my days made me better able to cope."

They want to USE Adobe's products but since they don't want to actually pay, they go "The grapes are sour anyway!" like the fox.
In the end that just means that there will not be enough people interested for Adobe to spend the money porting.
