The year is 2010, and sur­pris­ingly enough Adobe is set to release Cre­ative Suite CS5. It wasn’t too long ago that I decided to make the jump from CS2 to CS3, pri­mar­ily using Pho­to­shop as my most-used tool with my pho­tog­ra­phy work (aside from my actual cam­era of course)

What’s even more sur­pris­ing is that I’ve been doing this all on my G4 iBook 14″ lap­top which I freshly acquired back in 2004! Yes, it’s lived a lengthy life of 6 years already and I feel it could stag­ger on a bit longer but I know that it’s almost that time to invest in a brand new Mac. Every­thing is demand­ing more power and space these days with the emer­gence of photo & video, that it almost makes more sense to just splurge and spend the 2–3 thou­sand on a new Mac instead of a few hun­dred dol­lars each time on a new exter­nal HD (I think I’m on #5 now).

I ask Adobe, give me ONE good rea­son why I should upgrade to CS5 when I’ve been doing quite alright with what I’ve got? The answer:

Content-Aware Filler *NEW*

that is one damn good rea­son, damn you Adobe!
