On a more serious note. I have it on good authority that the Washington Post took photoshop off their photographers' laptops and replaced it with photoshop elements in an attempt to limit what they could do in the field.

Just curious... those were all legally purchased and registered versions of the Adobe software, right?

A photographer who doesn't own a copy of PS isn't worthy to be called a professional. It's as essential a tool in digital photography as a camera and lens. The WaPo may dictate what is on their company laptops, but there is no way in which that would limit their photographer's access, if desired at any time.

They would loose is curves and the ability to use plug-ins.. Still can use the clone stamp tool and layers. I use PSE 4.0 myself.
