What is so great about photoshop CS? I just picked it up, but I have yet to use it.

Go to Amazon or a local bookstore and look for books by Scott Kelby...

The Adobe Photoshop CS Book for Digital Photographers
Adobe Photoshop CS Down & Dirty Tricks

The biggest things (for me) ... better RAW support (you can do a lot more on hi res (bpp) images, the new browser. The only bad thing is the new protection.

They added a new security "activation" to it (to prevent piracy). For me it has been way too touchy and requires a net connection be active about every other time I need to use it.

This is scary, since Murphy's Law will guarantee that something critical is going to need to be made when the net is not.

castledude if you use the telephone activation you will never need it to access the net.

Tried it, didn't work (still makes me re-register) at various inconvenient times. It hates RAID and is way too sensitive to system changes.

Also it loses its mind on a system roll back.

Its pretty bad if I as a legal owner am required to install a crack....

On the good side Acrobat 7 does not exibit these issues. So maybe they will fix it someday.

hmm, i happen to know a certain individual who has a pirated copy of CS. All he did was install a crack to the folder and use the CD key "1111-1111-1111-1111" and he was good.

You bought it without knowing what it does? A tad strange if I may say so...
