<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 665194, member: 19065&quot;]I&#039;m a Mac lifer. It&#039;s hard to bite that bullet on a new Mac purchase, but it will sure pay you back in dependability and ease of use for the long run. I am a Graphic Designer and Art Director. I do a lot of layout design in advertising, can do acceptable retouching, digital photography and the like in my work and consider myself professional/expert level at using most Adobe products for image creation and use in layout (I&#039;m not as versed in the web and user interface design software or motion apps). I use Abode Creative Suite Professional 3 and 4 at home and at work. I&#039;ve not used any of the other software such as iPhoto / iLife or the Adobe elements you mentioned, because I have the upper tier graphics applications. I have iPhoto as it comes packaged on the Macs, but I never have opened it since I do everything myself in Photoshop. </p><p><br /></p><p>For me, there&#039;s no point limiting your potential and capabilities with these tools by buying the Lite versions. So if you are comfortable using these apps and use them a lot for various things, the money is worth buying the full Photoshop app over the elements versions. If budget takes precedent or you have such a limited need in these graphics apps then finding the streamlined software might be better for you. </p><p><br /></p><p>Let me know if you have something other specific in mind about this stuff that I could try to answer for you. </p><p><br /></p><p>Cheers![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
