A Smartass Education

Wow, how cool is this. I downloaded Photoshop CS3 from Adobe for free. In fact I didn’t even make an account on their website. I logged in using the BugMeNot plugin for firefox (or just go to bugmenot.com. It downloaded at a bloody fast 989k per second! and was done in 3 minutes.

Then being that it only gave me a 2 day trial, I decided I might not have enough time to try all the new features so I went into the \Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS3\AMT folder and renamed the file called application.sif to application.sif.bak, and now the trial period seems to be gone. (Look, I was just helping them find a security problem that will be fixed before they make a final release… I am not encouraging you to try this)

I will of course remove it after I have tried all the new features, but I must say Bravo Adobe for your wonderful beta experience.
