I like the new toy (cooliris) I really like the cool preview PIP browsing program. As far as the CS4 tut’s I am still trying to learn CS3. I think until I know as much as I can with CS3 I will stay with it!. It seems you can do the same with Cs3 as CS4 maybe slower. Noe CS4 PS ext. Is a must have. Thanks for your time and great info.
