I have Picture Window Pro, and have run it a few times.
I think had I stumbled onto it before photoshop, I'd be
using it happily. But I'm so USED to layers, and PWP ain't
got 'em. And right now I don't want to learn another editing
program well. Norman Koren (spelling on last name?) has a web
site that argues in favor of Picture Window Pro. Those of you
interested in a 16bit IccAware editor aimed at photographers
might want to peruse his site as well as the PWP site.
All my spare time right now is squarely centered on the new
OptioSV I purchased. Learning to use this little puppy effectively
is gonna take a long long long time. And, I think, worthwhile time.

From the PWP site:
Picture Window Pro is an extremely powerful image editor
that has every feature serious photographers require. Among them,
Full support for ICC color management.
Full support for 48-bit color and 16-bit B&W files.
This allows repetitive edits with no loss of quality.
Outstanding masking capabilities for adjusting portions
of an image, including creating masks based on image properties
.
A wide array of geometrical transformations, including resizing,
cropping, rotation, warping, perspective correction (equivalent
to lens tilt), lens distortion (barrel and pincushion) correction, and
lateral chromatic aberration (color fringing) correction.
