Before I buy it Can I get your opinions please?
I just checked the Apple store it is the same price (599.00)as the Adobe Photoshop web site.Would I be better off going though Apple or Adobe
I do not think Apple will provide help with it, will they? I think Adobe does.

Are you a student or faculty member or do you know a student? You can get a academic discount for that. I got the whole Suite for like $385. If you aren't doing commercial work then it is fine to use. Although I do know many students who do get paid for their work using "academic" software. I am neutral and have no opinions on that subject. It is exactly the same as the full price version though. Also check ebay they have good deals sometimes.

Places like journeyed.com and sprysoft.com(they have supplied me with my software). You must have proof of student records and submit them. After you submit it lasts a year before you must renew to get the student benefits.

I also forgot to say that Adobe offers support no matter where you buy the product. I bought mine third party and they have given me support. Apple is just a seller, they will not help you with any support on the product.
