I have a question that I hope one of you might be able to answer for me. The following comes from Adobe's site:
Q: What about customers who have more than one computer at home? Will Adobe be offering a "family license"?
A: Adobe is committed to offering the most flexible user options. Product activation opens the door for Adobe to offer more tailored terms to our customers, and we will be evaluating all possibilities going forward.
On Adobe's website it states that Photoshop CS requires a product activation on your machine. My question is, is it possible to install it on say your main machine and than install it on a secondary machine, such as a laptop?
If only one machine is allowed, that would truly suck.

Firstly, the Adobe license agreement allows you to install the software on a primary machine and a secondary laptop.
Secondly, product activation in Photoshop CS is only present in the Windoze version.

Is it just me, or is the amount of corporate crapspeak now becoming way too ingrained in everyday communication. WHAT THE HELL DOES GOING FORWARD REALLY MEAN?!?!? Two words tacked on to the end of a sentence to make Adobe sound like they're a 'switched-on' company. Blech.
Well... y'know... at the end of the day, we're all singing from the same hymn sheet and we need to drive more value to our solutions... blah... blah... blah...
Whatever happened to quality copy?
...Ahhh that's better. Sorry for the rant...

The PC Version of Photoshop CS is PAINFULLY slow.. Some of the new features that are standard now could have been done with plug-ins (ps-7) yes it now handles 16 bit but for the minimal/marginal gain in quality you get it isnt worth the time or expense. loading times with cs is 8x-10x slower than ps-7 the only feature i find useful (but not worth the time) is the ability for it to handle raw files (some tweeking is required for individual cameras). If you got along just fine with photoshop 7 (and coverted your raw images with your cameras software)
then I wouldnt bother.. One thing i can say i do like about it is the ability to save your work in progress and go back to it later without having to save all your previous steps. You can now load the work and progress and still undo previous steps.

One thing I could use would be the support for non-sqare pixels (video.) But that's a lot to pay for just that one new feature.
