Single-click any PDF document in the Finder. Press option+command+i to show its information panel. Find the Open with: section, and change that from Acrobat to Preview. Then click through the entire Change All… button to make Preview the default PDF opening application. Close the Show Info panel.

I don’t know what that all means but am very happy that you do!
