The final price is too much when we already have other programs that do the same job. I have Irfan View, Paint Shop Pro 8, and Photo Shop Elements 2

Ah, but what if this does it easier?

[-pops-]

Easier or not, it needs to be learned. If we already know two or more quite adequate programs to do the same job then, in my opinion, it's too late.

I use the same graphics programs as andsome and they do all I could possibly want and much more besides. Adding/substituting/learning another would be a bit too much for my ageing noddle, I think.

I wonder why it is the MS are the leaders in "me too" products? That is marketing something supposedly revolutionary which is, in fact, just a tarted up version of something that has been around for years (frequently in a better and more comprehensive form).

MS ought to realise that they can't be all things to all men and allow other companies to create and market software which does, after all, more often than not use the MS operating system(s)

I use the same as andsome and pops and agree the MS is would probably be and expensive alternative that may or may not be any better or easier.
