I am seriously considering purchasing a Mac for the first time. I am a heavy Photoshop CS user on Windows at present. Photoshop of course is not cheap - about $US 650.00, and I am hoping that I don't have to re buy it for the Mac. Is there any way to transfer my Windows based Photoshop license to a Mac based copy? Perhaps I could buy the CS2 upgrade, and supply my license key from the Windows CS version? Some other idea?
Has anyone been through this process and have any suggestions? Moving from Windows to Mac is daunting enough without having to shell out another $650 to keep Photoshop up and running. Any and all suggestions much appreciated!
BTW, I am thinking of getting one of the 2 GHz dual core PowerMac G5s. From what I have seen, it will run rings around my single core 3 GHz Pentium IV. If anyone has any comparitive experience of these two machines, I would love to hear that too!
