Give me the *bottom line*-period....

No alternatives, no 'ifs', 'ans' or 'buts'....:D

I can get a full LEGAL licensed version of CS2 for $285.00 (USD...) through my job.

Should I or shouldn't I?

a little help...

I am currently using Paintshop Pro 9, Elements 3.0, and two RAW converters. I don't *need* to upgrade but....At this price it seems like a 'no brainer'.

What say ye?


Thanks......
If every keystroke was a shutter press I'd be a pro by now...

    CS2 is definitely great, but buying it now is gonna mean not paying the electric bill this month, I thought I'd just let you know that $285 is pretty much the standard educational or group/business discount. In other words, you will be able to score it again at this price again.

    Yes, I have illegal software on, just haven't changed, but I have, in the box, the legal CS2 that I got with the Canon deal for 299.00.

    On top of being afraid that my current software will disappear or something, I wanted to get what I could while I could for a decent price. I could never pay full price. By doing that I think I am locking in reasonably priced upgrades. I would definitely get it for the price you are talking about.

    It really is fantastic! Haven't used the other. But have you noticed that most of the books are written for the current photoshop. That is a point right there.

    I waited to upgrade from PSE to PS for the price to reach $300. When it did I jumped on it. If you have the opportunity, I would go for it.
