Heads up for UK users: £65 from Amazon for PRE/PSE bundle

nealeh Nov 26, 2010 4:30 PM

Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and Premiere Elements 9 Bundle (PC/Mac)

That's pretty much simplified my decision. I wanted PSE9 but was not so keen on PRE9 because of performance issues on my Quad Core PC. But it didn't look as though I could have PSE9 integrate with PRE7 so I was thinking I'd wait until next year for v10.

But if you look here you can see that Amazon are only charging an extra £7 ($10) for the PRE element (and their PSE9 price was already one of the better ones in the UK). It's probably because PRE9 is getting some pretty damning feedback.

So my order is in. I'm not sure how much use I'll make of PRE9, but for £7 it's there if I need it and, hey, I'll be able to contribute to v9 questions raised on the forum

Cheers,

Hi Neale,

Yep, that's good news for the UK users.

Indeed, I have a Intel i7,12 GIGs, with 8 processors and I've had some issues with PE9 today. Yeah, I have all the latest videos/sound drivers, etc... but I couldn't figure out my crashes as I'm losing my patience and I'm not even a doctor! ;-) hehe After two crashes... I was going to go back to PE-7 or 8, so I finally cracked open Premiere Pro CS5. No regrets but much trepidation still.

Luckily, I've had a few pints of strong cider at hand to ease me into the workflow! hehehe

I bought my last computer in 2004 so it was time to get a fast machine and CS5 Production suite. Looks like no trip to France or Germany next year! hehe

I didn't win the lottery last night so I'm stuck with paying for it! LOL! hehe

Neale,

Those lotteries seem to be very fickle things, and not just in the UK!

Good luck with yours. Now, I did get a half-dozen e-mails, each telling me that I had won either the Scottish, or Irish Lotteries, and I only had to send a "small handling fee." Think I'll pass, as the people, who told me I was a big winner were all working from a Nigerian Internet cafe...

If I do hit either the Powerball, or MegaMillions, I will buy you the full CS5 Master Collection! Just please do not hold your breath, until I do win. We need you too badly in the forum, and do not want you waiting "breathlessly."

Does seem like a good buy. Have not poked around any of the US "sales," but would assume that there might be some good prices on Adobe bundles here too.
