Adobe Photoshop CS3 Beta

[GotToyota?]

Has anyone tried this yet? It's free for download @ download.com, I think I'm gonna try it out. Until it's done, I'd like to hear your feedback.

The beta is actually very awesome. I haven't had any problems or glitches yet. And there's a very simple way to turn it into the full version:

Go to your program files folder, then Adobe, then Photoshop CS3, go to the AMT folder, there is a file called "application.sif", change the extension to something random, and you now have the full version!

is it much different than cs2?

It's definitely noticeably faster, but the cursors are broken right now (Mac/Intel version). There are a couple little bugs but for the most part it works just fine, hasn't destroyed anything I know about yet. I haven't torture tested it yet but everything I've thrown at it so far has come out fine.

bah, I haven't even been able to install it yet, keeps locking up

Ah, bummer.
Definitely check out the forums at adobelabs; there may be a workaround already.
