I think GNU gets it right: SaaS would be more aptly termed Service as a Software Substitute (SaaSS).[1] The Creative Suite used to work fine before they turned it into a cloud "service". There is no good reason to make software that runs as native binaries on two platforms (Mac and Windows) dependent on remote servers.
