Photoshop Elements

Morning All,

I was looking at the cost of Photoshop 7 or 8 and Photoshop Elements online.. and I ran across this site that allows for downloads with a 20.00 CD copy option..

Seems like prices are very good.. ( to good?)

Anyhow.. perhaps others have heard of this site or have used it.. I read through their FAQ's and such.. and My thoughts are it is legit... Guess the only real drawback is if you are on dial-up as opposed to HighSpeed...

Costs of PhotoShop 7 120.00
Photoshop 8 150.00
Photoshop Elements 25.00

I'll add the link.. maybe others have thoughts...

Just curious...

Illegal...
The following would appear to be their lame get out clause.

Either way, it is too good to be true.
