But it doesn’t take an MIT doctorate to realize progress can’t move forward if everything is based on technology from several years ago. It might bother some people to need a newer operating system because it might cost them financial resources. This new subscription based service will increase the quality and speed of future technological advancements and benefit even the worst critics. Their old business model added turbulence to every aspect of their creativity. That said though maybe people should give Adobe a break. To be fair I can understand some of the sentiment. It seems that legacy users have a different view point than mine.
So from my vantage I’m thrilled with my $10 a month membership. I don’t have a history or relationship with Adobe before that. Never used Photoshop or Lightroom till then. My perspective is from someone who only started the Creative Cloud in January of 2014. Jeff, I understand and agree with your perspective.

Especially Windows users with older computers since they are likely to have a 32 bit version of Windows installed. You can check out the post on Adobe's website and some of the comments here.įor those of you who don't know what this means, if you have a computer that is more than 4-5 years old you may not be able to run the next version of Lightroom at all due to the version of the operating system installed.

Last week Adobe published a very brief announcement that as they are working very hard on a major version update to their popular Lightroom product they have made the decision to no longer support “older” operating systems:
