Adobe releases Photoshop CS3 beta
Adobe has released the Universal Beta of Photoshop CS3, the next generation version of its industry-standard graphics tool that runs natively on Intel-based Macs. Announced Thursday, the release requires a valid serial number and is only available in English (although non-English users can use their serial numbers). "Adobe has a long-standing commitment to the Mac community and this release is Adobe's way of delivering native performance on Intel based systems many months earlier than we otherwise could have done. We have no doubt, however, that all of our customers will enjoy exploring the new Photoshop CS3 beta and seeing some of the new features we have in store. The full application is not yet complete; but, many of the additions to the product are fully implemented and ready for you to try and discuss." Users without a serial number can use the demo for two days; it will expire when the final version is released.

Nice going, Adobe -- just when I thought the tide had actually turned, and Adobe had both a decent new product, and with the release of the Beta, and intelligent corporate strategy... nope!
(Looks pretty though, too bad the 30 day use checkbox only gives you 2 days of actual use)
Adobe = Idiots (as usual)
I didn't realize there was a definition for 'public beta' that says it has to last for more than 2 days or be available to everyone in the public. I thought a public beta meant that the program was available to people in the general public, not limited to a small subset of testers under NDA.
Hey, at least you can use it for a couple of days.
