It loads in a jiffy, runs quietly in the background, and is useful just for dragging and dropping photos into for speedy viewing. The retouch tools are sometimes better than those on Photoshop, for example the hue/sat/lum match tool and lighten/darken RGB brush.

I use it side-by-side with Photoshop, rather than one-or-the-other, giving me the best of all worlds.
I have never had the patience to learn photoshop - PSP does everything I need it for (which is noting that complicated).. so dont see the reason.
I've been using PSP7 (and now 8) for years. Tried the version 10 (after they were bought by Corel), but reverted to the earlier incarnation. The new one was indeed bloated with too many "wizards" for retouching and resizing etc.

Its a great program, and serves my purpose very nicely.

Its not on either of my two pcs at the mo, following a reinstall, and I really miss it. Must pop it back on tonight.
