I looked on their site before downloading and didn’t see any reference to that. Would appreciate the link.

I heard that.

I skipped one version of Photoshop...

I had been using CS2...until CS4 had been out for a while.

I had to go through HECK to upgrade to the NEW app at an upgrade price..

the software demanded that I have a serial number for an app I didnt own...mainly CS3

the customer service people at adobe got me home with no sweat...which these days might not be quite as easy.

It depends on whether you are a professional or a tinkerer like me. CS2 is very powerful. I purchased it years ago and have used it extensively as an amateur photographer since then. I still have not found a good reason to pay the price for a newer version. I use it in conjunction with Adobe Lightroom 2 and am quite satisfied. I recommend Scott Kelby’s book on CS2 to learn how to navigate the user interface. It is much quicker than trial and error.

Running it on Windows 7 right now with no problems so far.

I have Photoshop 7.0, I am assuming CS 2 is a more feature robust version.

There is nothing better than PS for digital editing. Lot’s of tutorials on the web to get you started too.

Go for it!!

Thank you!!

[MeshugeMikey]

very good!.

Ive been using CS4 four at least that many years.

if you do something like leave four or five dozen files open at once...it may slow down....but I doubt that very many people have adopted the sort of sloppy work ethic I have.

I run Photoshop..Bridge.. Illustrator..Dreamweaver..Flash Professional ..Lightroom..and three or four different browsers at once....which sucks up ram likely nobody’s business.
