>>I notice part of your job description is to basically eat your own dog food and use your Adobe products internally? What are the challenges with that?
>>Well let me generalize a little bit about eating your own dog food at Adobe. One of the things that we've been noticing is our enterprise customers are coming to us more and more and asking things like, how can they make their internal applications look better and be easier to use? You know, most of us know what that ERP experience is like and it's not pretty in many cases and so folks are actually coming to us and asking us to be more engaged in the enterprise. So part of my Adobe at Adobe program office is about eating our own dog food but exploring how Adobe products can be leveraged across the enterprise in interesting and unique ways. So for example, we've built applications on Adobe product like Adobe Air with flash that are leveraging information from our SAP enterprise, from our ldaps, from our Microsoft Office environment, from a number of different enterprise data sources and bringing those into rich Internet applications with very rich gooeys. And we're doing these things in 30 or 60 days as opposed to big long monolithic BI projects or data integration projects. So Adobe Adobe to me is all about how do we take the power of Adobe products which tend to be in the areas of rich Internet interfaces, data integration, collaboration and take those tools and explore them and exploit them inside the enterprise.
