CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

PC users often upgrade their hardware to get the most out of new games. Many Mac users, on the other hand, view Photoshop as the litmus test for hardware performance. While technically an image editor, this program contains an endless selection of drawing tools, filters, color adjustment capabilities, and other tools designed to manipulate images in almost any way. Photoshop incorporates raster and vector drawing tools, allowing you to work with bitmap images and scalable graphics at the same time.

Though it's an excellent software tool, the trial version demands a lot of time to download, a lot of hard drive space, and a lot of RAM for rendering and other heavy tasks. In addition, the trial version is save-, print-, and export-disabled, which limits your ability to assess this expensive product. Photoshop also has a high learning curve, so great results take time and training.

Publisher's description

Graphic designers, Webmasters, and photographers can create original artwork, correct color, retouch and composite scanned images, and prepare professional-quality separations and electronic output with more flexibility than ever before. Version 5.0 delivers the four most requested features in one upgrade: multiple levels of undo and redo, editable text with character-level formatting, flexible and precise color management controls, and built-in support for spot-color channels. Please note that the demo version will not save, print, export, or copy files to other applications.
