 Excellent -the industry standard software February 16, 2009

This is the software the industry uses, so you can go wrong for cutting edge software.
The student edition saves you 4/5 of the price-well worth it and the registration process is very simple and efficient.
Bear in mind -it does not come with any help file or contextual help whatsoever -you are expected to know how to use it; have a tutor or buy a book.
The program relies on an awful lot of keyboard shortcuts -which you have to remember - browsing the menus will just leave you confused if not an experienced user.
That said - there are tons and tons of (free)tutorials on the net and a few on Adobe website too. The quality of these is simply excellent and I've learned some neat tricks.
Note: CS4 is very stable and welcome change from my Corel PSP X2
If you don't want such a beast -consider its consumer friendly smaller brother, Adobe Elements, which has similar function; but less of the heavy stuff and more of the user help and guidance.

We purchased this for our son studying Business, Marketing and Tourism. Quick delivery from Amazon and a 48-hour response from Adobe with the serial number allowed problem free installation and immediate use. I would suggest those having problems getting the serial number are not sending Adobe exactly what they are asking for, one slight problem is that when you apply you can only attach one file, we had extra stuff if they needed it but were OK. If you read the instructions carefully and send them what they ask for as a high quality undistorted jpeg or pdf file, all will go smoothly. All he needs now is about three years to learn how to use it all to best advantage - it is a huge learning curve and rather daunting for first timers. There is a tutorial DVD included and we recommend Adobe Photoshop CS4 for Photographers by Martin Evening (ISBN 9780240521251) which we bought him at the same time.
CS4 Student Edition....... and Adobe Customer Service. September 4, 2009

The 'Student Edition' of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, comes without a serial number as it is necessary to prove your eligibility.
That was the easy bit!
Adobe have a strange way of dealing with enquiries, replying 3 or 4 days after your contact, with a PDF attached to an email saying that "We believe your issue is resolved and have therefore closed your case". It is not possible to reply to their emails......
At first they would not supply a serial number as I had not purchased from an 'Authorised Reseller'. I assume they meant I hadn't bought it direct and paid full price.........
After complaining, I received a serial number that didn't work,and another PDF. I eventually received a second serial number that wouldn't work either...and another PDF......
When the third serial number arrived, (with yet another PDF) and this also failed, I uninstalled the whole program. (this is quite a lengthy process). On reinstallation, Bingo! The third serial number registered ok......... I do not know if the 1st or 2nd would have.....
It would have been VERY helpful if Adobe had said at the outset that it was necessary to uninstall the program to register the serial number..... The 30 day trial had expired and the program was useless for a short while.
That said, now it's sorted, the product itself is excellent. Just a shame that Adobe's Product Support isn't as good.
Photoshop CS4 - Excellent product November 8, 2009

I had been using CS4 on a trial basis before ordering and found it to be far superior to Elements and much more stable than Paint Shop Pro X2. Upon receiving the package I sent off the required documentation to Adobe proving my status as a student. Within fifteen minutes they had replied and sent me the key (serial number)required to operate the software. I had read some reviews about the delay in receiving the key back from Adobe. Cannot understand their problem and I have no complaints with the service from Adobe.
The software is accompanied by a training DVD which provides lots of help, short cuts, tips etc.There is also a link to the Adobe site where again there are lots of help topics with videos.
The discount for students is an excellent idea and a great saving.
Have also purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 for photographers by Martin Evening. Well laid out book and again is accompanied by a training DVD with practical exercises to complete.

I have now got this software up and running on my computer and am completely satisfied with it. However, I did have to ring Adobe several times to obtain the 'key' as when I emailed, I had no response. Luckily I had a very helpful guy (call centre from India!) who sorted it all out but only after several phone calls. Keep your patience and the result is very worthwhile as a big saving in cost.
