Switched from 4.0.3 to 6.0 because of universal binary (speed). I like the clear design, ease of use (use it mainly for processing pictures from my digital SLR), reasonable speed and good results. Yet, if you look at reviews of other new Adobe products (CS3) for Mac, you get the impression that Adobe has reduced quality control considerably. With elements, I encountered 2 bugs that annoy me a lot: when you set the application to hide the palettes, the one on the right-hand-side still pops up everytime you open a new file (moving the mouse over the handle reveals a text reading something like "open palette" - so the palette thinks it is hidden whilst it is not, clicking on the handle makes the window hide). Secondly, if you finish your work on an image, hit the close-button a dialogue box comes up prompting you to save/unsave/save as, but hitting "save" brings up the "save as" dialogue... My current work-around is to press ctrl-s which brings up the correct "save" dialogue. on the adobe website you can submit bug-reports which i did - there are quite many bug reports there already... (there is also a forum at adobe's site - its also full of bug-stories). i hope adobe gets rid of all these little - yet annoying - bugs soon! if they were eliminated, i'd re-evaluate PSE and propably give it 5 stars!
