Everything Apple (the Mac heads thread)

Changing host files does work, i ran CS2 for about 4 years hassle free.
I can't remember for the life of me how it's done but there'll definitely be guides online.

I'm doing a photography BA (going into year 3 also) and often cautious friends say about how images using dodgy photoshop are traceable but i'm not too sure. If photography/editing is your main source of income then it's worth buying if not for the peace of mind, may be an incentive to use student discount as adobe are safe like that. Also updating isn't that much.

See i can use my student discount but I think you have to get the student version.
Which in a years time when I finish my BA, will be as legit as a downloaded version.
Same problem with upgrading, because my cs3 is student I think I can only upgrade it to student cs5.
