    I was in art school around then and a good portion of us were pirating windows 98 or windows NT. And we were running pirated Photoshop and pirated Illustrator on it…a lot of us pirated everything.

      I think you mean 25-26 years ago.

      In 2009 art workflows were absolutely dominated by Apple devices and when the memes about pretentious mac users in cafes started popping up.

        2009? There is a joke about pretentious mac users in the movie “Best In Show” (great movie BTW) in 2000, and by that time it was widespread enough to be a funny side gag in a comedy about dog owners.
