Adobe (NASDAQ:ADBE) turned in its earnings report earlier today, and the news was hardly good. The mixed earnings report, the disappointing future projections going into a period of relatively high demand, and a massive expense laid out for a product of dubious value doesn't exactly bode well. This is especially true in the short term, where inflation is driving prices through the roof and most people—not to mention plenty of businesses—are carefully watching their own spending.
