SFGate.com has an interview with Adobe CEO Bruce Chisen, whose storied career includes a stint at Claris. Topics covered are wide ranging and the man is quite interesting—the entire piece is worth your time.

However, for the sake of brevity and staying on message, I offer this single quote:

Adobe's relationship with Apple is like a marriage where you're in it for the kids. Except in this case, the kids are never going to grow up.

Of course, marriages that hang together "for the kids" (ie the companies' shared customer base) often still end acrimoniously.

Adobe's Creative Studio 2 (PowerMax) is now shipping

That said, perhaps the question that needs answering here is "What's the end game?" Are these two companies destined to collide or come together in a merger/buyout? Is there a future where they can remain independent?

What's your take?
