Good point about Adobe however I am not talking from a web designers point of view. To really be fair you must realize that I am speaking strictly from the point of view of a photographer. Most of us are not web designers and do not have a need for their tools. Now do we want them, well, that is something to consider.
My opinion about Photoshop is just that. My opinion. So I will tell you that for my purposes Photoshop is overpriced. Spend the extra cash you will save on a better lens or a point and shoot with more megapixels/higher optical zoom. You will get more bang for your buck.
