RE: GIMP vs. CS4
Greg, As a Photoshop Playboy you maybe interested to know that Adobe has an offer until April 30th to allow users of CS3 Standard (and CS2, and CS) to upgrade to CS4 Extended. And if you purchase Lightroom at the same time you will receive an additional 30% off.

I can see the headlines now: Alaska archivist busted stealing software on 14th Street. How I do miss NYC but the pretext for visiting is all wrong. I've decided to stick with CS3 for the time being and NOT upgrade. Given the current economic climate maybe Adobe will go Chapter 11 if I don't buy into their overpriced bloatware and then college students and faculty around the world will write code that would blow Adobe's defunct product away. Slap me - I'm hallucinating; must be cabin fever. --g Judy Seigel wrote: ==some deleted: snip%< > Greg, are there any electronics stores up there in northland that let > you use software before purchasing?
