The student and teacher editions of Photoshop CS5.5 extended editions are the same as the CS5 i could buy in the store? I have tried to compair the 2 on their website and i think they are the same but i just wanted to make sure.
Thanks for any help.

They are exactly the same -- however the license terms are different.

Actually the licence terms have cleared up now - the only differences (as I recall it) are:

1) They require proof of your being in a teaching/student position in order to be activated.

2) Student/teacher editions won't allow you a cheaper upgrade to a newer version of photoshop. You can of course get a new student/teacher discount copy of a new version (but you can't use a teacher/student version to get a cheap upgrade on a regular retail copy). Of course for a new version you have to re-prove that you are still a teacher/student

Thank you very much for the quick response!!!! I am a student at a community college (again) just to take some classes for fun and have been wanting to get CS5. thanks again!!!

Adobe only sells CS5 Extended as a Student Edition, not the regular CS5.

Extended has both 3D and scientific editing capabilities the regular CS5 lacks.

Photoshop sucks! GiMP is worse. I like MacPaint....

Just trolling...

Don't you only get one license with the education discount, where as you get two with the full version? Not a factor if you only plan on using the software on one computer....
