More bad news on TCS4: no longer includes Photoshop

Hi Bernard,

I agree. I own the Creative Suite as well and it's frustrating having
overlap of the applications. It's less expensive to buy the suites in the
first place, but when you only want to upgrade one of the components, you
can't do it.

It's never been an either/or selection for me. I started my career as a
technical illustrator and use both Illustrator and Photoshop extensively in
my work. I can appreciate that most of you work in the software field, where
screen grabs are pretty much the extent of your graphic work. However, there
are still many of us working writing manuals for mechanical components. We
require far more sophisticated tools for illustration than screen grabbing
software.
I will admit I dislike the TCS model intensely, especially since I already
own the Creative Suite. Why is it so much more expensive? Why can't I buy a
basic suite and add components as I need them for a fraction of the cost of
the individual software packages? It's not like I have much of a use for
Robohelp anyway.
Just my two-cents.
