Free PhotoShop

I thought DMS majors would find this interesting.

Adobe is planning on releasing a free version of Photoshop, named Photoshop Express.
I’ve never really bothered with Photoshop in the past and relied on the free open source alternative “Gimp” for most of my image processing needs. There is even a Gimp Shop, a program that basically recreates the Photoshop UI inside of Gimp for free. These seem like popular ideas online and I’m guessing that the gaining popularity of open source software and the increased piracy of software online is what is driving Adobe to try to expand its customer base to users that can't afford its $650 dollor price tag.
