PLEASE HELP! - a request from an auld graphic dude

Aldus wrote a program called FreeHand around 1987, it has been my right arm, my muse a tool that I'm still exploring. Adobe bought over Macromedia (who had already bought over Aldus) and quashed FreeHand in favour of their antwacky Illustrator. What Adobe did goes against so many laws (ie. cancelling out the competition) but we need numbers to show our disgust.
Many designers (such as myself) just can't get to grips with Illustraitor (sic) and have legacy FH files going back decades. A movement has been started and we need members, we're up to 3,000 but need more to bolster oor cause.
Please just sign up and add to our pressure group, you won't get spammed.

thank you
