A few years ago I switched from Macromedia to Adobe products, figuring Adobe had more of what I needed. Went flat out last August, investing in the Adobe CreativeSuite Premium for about $1500. I thought I was all set. Less than 7 months later Adobe signals the latest CS upgrade. About $1300. Just to upgrade. Now, Adobe has swallowed Macromedia. I dread thinking about what the next upgrade will cost.

Makes the Panther>Tiger upgrade look like excellent value. Peanuts.
