I will abstain from such questioning. My interest into the mac world began with Photoshop Elements 4.0 which I saw being used on a PC.

Which I got at the local "better purchases" I had no problems with the photoshop elements. I Read the book that came with the disk and off I go making the first zillion dollar bill with the picture of a famous president. Premiere elements 2.0 wasn't as easy going. I took some video using my DV cam, loaded what I wanted into PE2 played with it adding all the cool affects . The 1st 5 min of video was great but after that everything began slowing down.
