The difference is that VHS didn't cost 4x as much as it's competitor. I'd love to use Photoshop, mainly for all the tutorials that I see online and in the magazines. But there's no way I can justify spending that amount of money when I can get something very similar for a fraction of the cost.
Of course, I could do what most PS users do and get myself an illegal copy. The problem is I've got morals that won't allow me to do that. So, for another year at least I'll be sticking to PaintShopPro and probably having to ignore 25% of the content of this forum.
