Duration of ownership: 1 Months
Strengths: Haven't used enough to say.
Weaknesses:Haven't found any as yet.
Overall Evaluation: Have not used all of the applications but am very satisfied with the Program. It is probably more than I will ever need but nice to have if I decide to try my hand at some of the applications.

Strengths: Used to be good
Weaknesses:The new Photoshop CS3 has better GUI elements.
Overall Evaluation: You can now collapse vertical tool palettes on the left and right side of the screen with Photoshop CS3. CS3 has also been optimized for binary macintosh's making it run 3X as fast, and the start up is nearly instantaneous. Dont bother with CS2.

Strengths: This is the gold-standard of photo-editing. The flexibility definitely lends itself to those "what if" moments. It is what professionals use for professional results.
Weaknesses:You do pay for the flexibility. The flexibility also makes it less accessible for a few users. For Grandma who just wants to crop or rotate pictures, obviously there are many options more affordable.
Overall Evaluation: For most who have worked with software frequently, particularly other photo software, the transition for a new user shouldn't be too difficult. A healthy starter guide is included to explain the basics, but the layout and concepts are fairly intuitive. With digital photography becoming even more prevalent and trends towards more dynamic electronic media demands in everyday life, an editor that can render high-quality, seemingly flawless results is a valuable tool.

Strengths: Fast Delivery of authentic product.
Weaknesses:Prodcut is for the south Aisan market. Seller did not identify it as such.
Overall Evaluation: The Photoshop CS2 came quickly within 5 days of the order. The product did register with Adobe and works perfectly. BUT... I discovered that my edition was intended for the south Asian market. The draw back of this is that I was unable to download the CS3 beta preview. Otherwise CS2 is great much better than my real old version of PS.

Strengths: The most versatile and useful program of it's kind. It comes with tutorials, manual and good tech support.
Weaknesses:So many options, it can be overwhelming for first timers.
Overall Evaluation: Indispensable software for the professional photographer. The most versatile and useful program of it's kind. It comes with tutorials, manual and good tech support. It is almost impossible to use every aspect of this program because there are so many. By the time you learn it well they come out with the next version.
