OK then. The Adobe CS4 Master Collection today at Amazon.com (US) is priced at $2,495 but at Amazon.co.uk (UK) it's £2,297 (and at Amazon.eu €3.405). Given the current £/$ exchange rate $2,495 = £1,682. Seem fair to you? Hi Tim,

Adobe CS4 “you can… grumble about the price”.

I mean, when we at Adobe MAX last week listening to Michele Turner VP of Flash I only had one question if you remember: "You segment product areas by function or group - but not by which you monetise and which you provide for free. How do you ensure long term profitability with these stratgies...?" Well, I said something close to that as I recall. Best Adrian Hey Tim,
