Adobe unveils Creative Suite 3.0 (CS3)
Adobe today released details of a complete revamp of its Creative Suite – the market-leading software package for high-end photographers, graphics- and web-designers. Adobe revealed that it has combined, for the first time, products from its aquisition of Macromedia with its own portfolio. Adobe has created six different versions of Creative Suite 3.0. Each is aimed at specific customer groups, according to Caleb Belohlavek, Adobe CS group manager. The targeted groups are print and publication designers, web designers and video designers. Adobe also has created a monster suite that includes all the products.
In a major update from CS2 (Creative Suite 2.0), Adobe has created critical links between tools included in the suites. This will make it easier for designers to create graphics and applications in a market where various multimedia formats are converging, Belohlavek said. CS3 (Creative Suite 3.0) bridges the gap between Adobe and Macromedia products, and eliminates overlap in the product lines. Designers can now import the layers of a Photoshop image directly into Flash, then manipulate the image without having to flatten all the layers into a completed image first. Having to import all of the layers into Flash at once “used to be a huge time consumer”, Belohlavek said. At the behest of customers, CS3 sees Adobe replace its GoLive web-design product with Dreamweaver, Belohlavek said. Adobe will maintain GoLive as a standalone product. Estimated street price for the Adobe Creative Suite 3.0 Design Premium is £1,409, £1,195 for Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium, £1,409 for Adobe Creative Suite 3 Production Premium, and £1,969 for Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection. These prices are also the reasons for marking Adobe’s software as the most popular among filesharing networks of all kind – not many home users can afford to pay such a riddiculous amount of money for this software…

i never realised just how expensive they were having always got them for free
Indeed they charge a riddiculous amount of money for this software… and yet I feel sorry for the business organizations that must pay this amount of money because we download this for free
there is a beta available:

Darn Adobe… I haven’t even thoroughly learnt CS2 yet….

There will be no 64-bit version of CS3 because according to adobe 64 bit support made no much difference for their applications. 64bit makes it only easier to access larger amount of memory (>2GB). The downside of 64bit support is larger calculations have to be made because the address spaces are now 64 bit instead of 32 bit. This makes it less efficient if it is not really needed.
lior + q:
the cost of cs suite is reasonable considering the amount of work thats gone into developement & testing. i suspect adobe arnt all that bothered about the non-commercial users pirating (if you cant afford £2k, you cant afford £2k
. expert users dont just grow out of no where over night, but the ones that do make it professionally and become legit users becomes pretty loyal adobe customers.
i sure arnt as hell gonna switch to paintshop pro after all the time i’ve invested in ps
Can’t wait to try these out. I wasn’t sure that the aquisition of Macromedia by Adobe would be a good thing, but I’m looking forward to see how they’ll integrate the two product ranges.
i can´t wait… im going on a adobe seminar soon. check it out! its free!! unlike the softwares =)
where the links for down ?
