uhm...

look.

I'm a big supporter of doing things uhm...

The "not moral way"

Uhm companies charge you way too much for things... Adobe and Microsoft are great examples. Even home consumer versions of Windows are outrageous at release dates, just to drop in price 6 months later.

It's unfortunate too, there are some many great programs that are either just as good as, or superior to most of the stuff released by large companies. Open Office is a great example. I wish more corporations and people would give a big thumbs down to most of the software developing companies of today.

Just, whatever screw adobe.

Adobe Photoshop is overpriced, but there is no competition.

I really hate adobe. Adobe reader that pile of shit program is on almost everyone's fucking computer. One of my many pet peeves when I fix friend and family's computers.

Anyway, adobe's editing software is powerful, professional and well coded. That said it is still overpriced (but it can be when big businesses use it).

I'd try to do what Gekko suggested and get a student copy or something. Or i'd just head on over to the pirate bay....

Actually reader is cool. It's free, and pretty useful.

There are better lightweight alternatives that don't constantly nag you about updates and tie up your memory.

But to each his own.
