Photoshop or other

I have been using a slightly bent copy of Photoshop CS4. However now i've got my 5D mark 2 i need the update for raw and it won't update.

Therefore i need to get a straight copy of Photoshop or something similar. I am familiar with Photoshop, but at £400 (i'm in the US at the moment) its expensive.

What are your thoughts

From apple the price is $699 plus tax (just looked at the UK apple store and its £616) so i think its worth a punt at $379 (£260)

If you already have a bent copy of CS4 why not get a new bent copy of CS4 that has a keygen in it that works. That way you can download your updates anyway.

Must admit I didn't look but 30 seconds of hunting and I've found at least 200 copies to download.
