Please! Try to restain from changing the premissions every time.
You said: I know people who choose Photoshop over Gimp, *NOT* because of
the missing features, but because that it is more intergrated.
So I assume that the missing features is not a premise for buying
Photoshop. Of course if somebody *need* the missing features, the matter
is different.
As to if I have tried Photoshop, yes I have. However not on Mac OS X,
but on the older Mac OSes which I found dumbed-down and frustrating as I
find Windows. But I do not wish to say anything with respects to Mac OS
X (the Unix clone Mac had to change to as their old OS was beyond
repair) as I haven't tried it, I expect it to be better than Windows,
but I do not know. But please don't thing the users are a homogenous
group of people. User friendliness is not the same for everybody. Some
want clicky-micky-click-click interface (and developing problems with
the muscles in the hand) others want a UI where they can use the
keyboard etc...
