rofl. Didn't even know there was a student discount. It's probably still OP though.

Regularly its $1799 USD and for students its $399 USD for Design Premium.
You can get just Photoshop CS4 Extended for $199.
I also conveniently won a $75 Titles giftcard just after I ordered it from Titles so I only ended up paying $388 total.

I see where you are comign from: If you're in the program, it's not hard to justify buying... If you make some art in a non-licensed version, and your art is recognized, you have to send it around, and then licences can be tracked. That's not good  |

Yeah I've definitely downloaded before, prior to University and used Photoshop that way for many years but I felt I could justify the purchase.
You may not have ever had problems with a non-legit version before but it happens and that would not be ideal if I was already at home with no way to get back to the lab at night and had a project due.

I really wish adobe would clean up their freakin' code rather than release a new version every 18 months with no real substantial updates.

One of the benefits of piracy for a lot of companies is that they get people used to software they can't afford or justify a purchase of. When these people are finally able to justify/afford the software they end up shelling out money for the software they're familiar with. There's a reason GIMP and OpenOffice aren't very popular even though both are free and about as good as Photoshop and MS Office respectively.

That's a good point, BJ.
For people like me though, who do it as nothing but a hobby, and I can get it for free without it being traced, it's not worth it to shell out the money. I mean let's face it, I've been downloading pirated software since I was 11.
Now, if I decide to do this a profession where my entire life will be dedicated to photoshop, then I'd probably buy it.
But till then...
I'm good being a freeloader. ;D

OpenOffice kind of sucks in my opinion... it's like MS Office minus 5 years.

Can't wait for CS5, because CS4 will come down in price. Last year, I got CS3 Web for $50 at Titles.
<3 Fireworks.
