I recently got my very own MacBook, and I desperately needed Photoshop.. so I got a free 30 day trial of the latest and greatest version: CS3. It's really snappy! I feel like I can breathe again. I also got the trial for Illustrator. Seeing as I'm going to school to become a graphic designer, and Illustrator is a graphic designer's bread and butter, I better learn to use it! It's mostly that darned pen tool that gives me trouble!
I just don't know what I'll do when my trial runs out.. I have 25 days left. I hope there's a good student discount available!
