Adobe Reader Bloat Continues

by Jason Bean on December 7th, 2006

Adobe Reader 8 Available (In Bloated Version ONLY)
I don’t want to hear anyone complain about bloated software from Microsoft again until they admit Adobe’s got a problem too. Why in the love of binary code does a simple PDF reader have to be a 20MB+ download!

Update: It took over 20 minutes for the Adobe Reader to install, then they wanted me to go to another website and download and install more add-ons. You’ve got to be kidding me. Luckily, it only took a few seconds to download and install the FoxIt Reader at less than 2MB.
