Not= sure whether=20 I am grasping the new Adobe upgrade path options fully, can someone explain= the=20 benefits of signing up to creative cloud (special intro offer =A327.34 a mo= nth)=20 where it states that all CS6 apps plus additional cloud based apps can be= =20 downloaded and used, as opposed to the CS5 to CS5.5 upgrade offer where the= y=20 send CS6 as a complimentary upgrade?
If all the apps are available for =A327.34 the= n =A346.88=20 (after first year) a month then surely that is a much more cost effective o= ption=20 working on the basis that there will be a CS upgrade at least once a=20 year?

It looks like a=20 good deal - I agree.=A0I was tempted myself, especially as Adobe have now g= ot=20 us all locked into the upgrade cycle with their 'one step back' upg= rade=20 policy.
=A0
Two things to=20 consider:
=A0
Once they've gotn=20 you hooked, will they rack the price up over time?
=A0
With all those=20 lovely applications at hand you'll start using many of them - then real= ise that=20 if you stop paying, your software disappears - and you can't get access= to any=20 of your files...

You've gota hand=20 it to them...
