    Re-run the math ImaNihilist.. You do not save money if you skip versions if all you use is Photoshop.
    Photoshop CS 6 Extended retailed for $999. The upgrades have been $299. That's $1000. That's 50 months at the current Photoshop CC pricing of $20/mo, which could go down.

    That's four YEARS of updates. I don't know anyone using a 4 year old version of Photoshop. Adobe is horrible at supporting older versions. I'm not even sure a 4 year old version of Photoshop would run properly on the latest version of OS X.

    Do you actually use Photoshop or any of applications in the Creative Suite?

    $20/mo for Photoshop is a great deal. $50/mo for the whole Creative Suite is amazing.
