I'm down to 500K now that all you f@#$ers are on.    (Just kidding!!!)   :(

Still, tomorrow is going to suck when 10,000+ people all get 1kbps each.   Thanks a whole lot Melchior!!

You shouldn't get slow speeds, EVER! from akamai. I think the only reason I am getting these slow speeds is the caches here in Australia have not filled yet with this. That's my guess anyway. My ISP has 4 akamai clusters and I normally get rip roaring speeds from them.


Might do a test, after this and see how fast it comes...


Akamai is why you can get apple trailers and apple & microsoft software updates so fast, because akamai is what the internet should be.

Bullshit CS3 License Generator said:

Sorry, but the serial number you entered is not eligible for the Photoshop CS3 Beta download. Please try your Photoshop CS2 serial number again, or, if you do not own a license for Photoshop CS2, you can purchase one on Adobe.com and use the serial number to download the Photoshop CS3 Beta.

What the hell man, that pisses me off. Won't give me a proper CS3 key!

Installation caps:   Nice change of pace, I suppose.

A licensed copy of Photoshop CS2, Creative Suite 2, Production Studio, Adobe Web Bundle, or Adobe Video Bundle is required to use this technology beyond a two-day trial period.

Means anybody can use for 2 days without owning any Adobe product...

BTW I'm all excited about this. I'm hoping for OpenGL zooming in final. Started 800KB/s, now getting 300KB/s, it's slower every minute. Will be a mess in a few hours in the morning.

Even a valid SN isn't enough, it requires activation after that.   So Pirated SNs will eventually stop activating and those people will get stuck with a 2-day demo.

On the plus side, letting people use it for two days is a great way to get people to try it out.

Photoshop is:

A)  Adobe's flagship product.

B)  The most requested UB from Adobe/Macromedia.

C)  The reason many people aren't buying CS2.

So, I kinda expected this to be the first.   It instills a lot of faith in Adobe from an audience that has really been in doubt and I think that's the only purpose it serves.   I hope we'll see more betas of other products too...    but I wouldn't hold your breath.   This just achieved their main objective without letting ALL of the new secrets/features out.   Who knows.   they aren't Apple, so they just might post them all as betas.

I think this build is phenomenal so far, but time will tell.   The tacky icon is an eyesore, but the new tweaks and the speed boost make it worth it.

=)
