Creative Suites

Ok so at some point I am going to buy Adobe’s Creative Suite. I’ve been doing some freelance stuff for my sister Julie using the month trial version of Indesign so if (by if I mean when) that runs out I’ll either have to buy it myself or not do any more work. CS3 with the student discount, which I can still get, is about $220. This includes the most recent versions of Indesign, Photoshop, Illustrator…and a couple smaller things. THEN, I get an email through my ward email list from someone who is trying to sell a brand new CS2 for a mac. They thought they were going to buy a Mac but ended up getting a PC instead. I think her asking price is $100. I’m trying to decide what I should do. It’s only a $120 difference to get the newer version. But I might be able to get her to go down… But I wonder if it would be worth it to just get the updated one now.
