Even though I use a lot of free and open source software, I have no problem with software developers getting a reasonable profit from their efforts. But when the cost of the software is about the same as the cost of the camera (as in CS3), I remain to be convinced that it's "reasonable". Abobe also seems to be intent on keeping Elements sufficiently crippled to force photographers to the higher priced product (eg, no 16 bit adjustment layers). I'll happily buy Elements when and if it supports 16 bit adjustment layers but, until then, my old version of PS 6 will have to suffice.
