No I haven't. :( But I have a crown to put on the tooth that gave me so much trouble earlier this year so probably can not afford it at this time.

That's funny 'cause I had to sell one of my gold teeth to pay for the software.

Lol, do they give a good rate?

[asnow]

Photoshop CS5 is $699US

If what you say is true then;
Elements 8 is $99 and and then the upgrade to CS5 is $299 = Total $398

It would seem go and buy elements 8 then upgrade it to CS5 and you would save basically $300

Am I mississing something here ??

If there is an upgrade to CS whatever in in Elements, its a feature I wasn't aware of. At any rate, your math is correct. This offer applys to not just PSE 8, but also to Photoshop Elements for Windows 6.0, 7.0; Photoshop Elements Mac 4.0, 6.0, and 8.0. So if you have the older versions, you get the discount, too. If you own no other Adobe software you would be roughly $300 ahead to get one of those copies registered with Adobe and then proceed to to a CS5 download link.

Actually, it gets even better. Save 30% on Adobe Photoshop Lightroom® 3 when you buy it with Adobe Photoshop CS5. Are times that hard over at Adobe?

No way can times be hard over there. Shareholders just want to get 3 more vacations in before the end of the year.

Seriously though, this is an awesome deal. CS5 has some new amazing features like content aware fill, a better quick selection tool, better HDR tools and other things that I'm forgetting.

I went over to the Adobe website and I am a member there. While it is true you can upgrade from PSE 6,7 or 8 the reduction is only $100.00. So still $599.00 U.S. to buy.
