Inexpensive PS CS?

[mjs1973]

It's only April 2, how can that press release be dated for two days from now?

I googled photoshop CS2 and came up with a few other sites that have this same press release. From what I gathered from those sites is that this was a "leak" and that is was posted early by mistake. It could be that they are planning to make the "official statement" on the 4th.

Yes I think that is the case Michael, as I haven't been able to find anything other than this as well. Was mentioning it to maybe save having to upgrade again in a month or so, that is all.

Thank you very much for mentioning it Peter. I really appriciate it. I would be a little upset if I bought CS only to have CS2 show up a month later. I think I will hold off for now, and get a new tripod for my trip instead of CS. Thanks again for letting us all know about CS2!!

EVERYTHING in the Creative Suite has been upgraded to CS2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



~grrrrr!~

My only hope is that *maybe* they didn't process my order until today. I did order at 1:30 in the afternoon on Friday.

Of course my order is for 1.3, so I'm sure that's what they're going to send me.

Ring them up and ask them.

Give them a call Kelly and see if it's too late to cancel your order, or to upgrade it. I wonder what the academic price is going to be on the new version...

[another view]

Kelly, I'd probably cancel it too. Even if they don't process the order until today, it won't be CS2 because the press release says it won't ship for awhile yet (was it May?) - in any case, not today.

As soon as it's released (or shortly after) there should be an academic version available. Just a guess, but if one store doesn't have it try another, maybe they're stuck with a bunch of versions of CS that they want to get rid of first.

Looks like CS2 has some new interesting features, but not anywhere near the upgrade of going from 7 to CS was (RAW converter, healing brush, more 16-bit features). I'm sure I'll upgrade but will probably wait a couple of months to see why these new tools are something I can't live without.

Kelly, if it's too late to cancel your order, Adobe is offering a $100 rebate if you upgrade to CS2.
