Adobe CS6 on sale today, Creative Cloud coming May 11th

22

Creative Cloud distribution platform ? May 11th. The option gives subscribers access to all of Adobe?s professional tools for a $49.99 monthly fee.

CS6 includes revisions to all of Adobe?s Creative Suite apps, from Photoshop to After Effects, and as usual the company is offering a variety of packages and price points for people in different industries ? ranging from $699 for a single Photoshop license, to $2599 for the 16-app Master Collection. If you?ve been using the CS6 beta up until now, it?s probably a good idea to spend the cash soon if you don't want to lose your apps; Adobe has already stopped offering the beta for download, and we?re expecting it to draw to a close any day now.

I see Adobe are still performing daylight robbery; I'd love to know how they manage to convert $2599 USD to ?2667 with other similar currency "conversions" for other European countries. That's around ?1000 more.

With prices like that I won't be upgrading....

They want $949 for an upgrade from CS4. They probably justify it by saying they had that money grab version 5.5, so I'm "3 versions behind"

They had more reasonable prices when I upgraded from CS-> CS2 - CS4. I'll be skipping out on this one.

Pirate Bay here I come. Honestly, how can they justify the British cost?

Simple economics, they have to import the data in to the UK... (or many other countries for that matter)

Clearing that much data through customs isn't cheap!

Creative Cloud is live, all the apps are there, couple of let downs;

- the touch apps are not free, i don't know why i assumed they were since it would be impossible to do this through the app store .. but if you purchase 3 apps you get a month free, which is nice.

- the desktop app, which i believe is a dropbox like folder on your PC/Mac isn't available yet which is one of the things i was looking forward to.

Just downloaded the Application Manager. Seems if you downloaded any of the trial software from Adobe, such as the Master Collection CS6, the program will recognize this and thus you don't have to redownload. The "TRYOUT" will simply be converted into the full version.

damn, i just uninstalled the trial version before proceeding [whilst also uninstalling my pirated copies, and Little Snitch] ... i'm happy to be legal now though.

    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
