Re:Why would anyone bother with PhotoShop now ??? (Score 2)

The only problem is that it doesn't run under Mac OS X. You forget the Photoshop revenue for Adobe is still split ruffly 55/45 in favor of the Mac. Someone needs to spend a weekend porting over GDK in GTK+. The reason you wont see GIMP in more places is because most newspapers use Apple Script. A very powerfull scripting language that automates there work flow. Also I haven't seen Quark, or InDesign importing GIMP files as of late.
