RE: [Digital BW] Adobe Camera raw and Photo Shop CS

2005-04-26 by Seth

Not that it's a scam, but other software continues to update minor things
in prior versions (e.g., ACR in CS), so Adobe could.

Upgrading simply for ACR is nuts!  You'd be doing it constantly in a media
organization. 

Upgrading for major features makes sense.  CS was just that on the photo
side.  Since CS2 comes close on its heels, who knows?
Is it just a cash generator?  Is it stuff only held back from CS so they
could do this?  Or, is it a MAJOR improvement in many areas that warrants
upgrade?
