We have, and use, both PS and ED. ED is quite lacking when it comes to enhancing images, but it is really quick at banging out packages of prints. I imagine that I could figure out how, in PS, to take an image, print an 8x10, 3-5x7, 4-3x5 and 8 wallets all with borders in one step, but I'm not sure how PS would track this for me including pricing, tax, etc.. Both have their place, but for high-volume, multiple sheet package printing I still think ED has the edge. Now, I am rather annoyed at this price drop, as we just purchased in late December, but at least we got 15% off at that time. It seems to me that we are talking about two pieces of software that do different things but that overlap. If I never had to print 500 prints in one day, then PS might be fine. If I never needed the ability, while printing all those prints, to scale and center an image incrementally, while printing all those prints, then PS would be fine. If I never needed to do real image editing, then ED by itself would be fine. But, as I need to do both, I'll continue to use both.

I have to agree with Bill, PS is a great program and really a must for every digital photographer. ED, Triprism, or Kodaks software is a must for any digital photographer doing high volumes. The simplicity of operating the systems and organization of files makes high volume work practical..

"I did not purchase Express Digital because I cannot figure out PS!..If you don' have the software , don't knock it until you try it."
I guess someone has a chip off their shoulder. Reread my post Mr. Unhappy, I didn't knock ED and I think's it's great event software. All I said was a lot of people get it because they can't figgure out PS. I didn't say "everyone"
