So the past couple of years people loved using Adobe. Now that everyone is trained in it and almost can't perform their tasks without it they change from a one-off payment to a pay monthly system. Used to love Adobe.....

As long as you have a compatible operating system, there is nothing stopping you from using CS6 (or earlier) programs

When you buy a new computer, or you update your existing computer with a newer operating system, you CS6 (or earlier) programs may stop working... which is not caused by Adobe, it is cause by Apple and Microsoft making changes that mean their newer operating systems are not compatible with old programs

Thanks for the reply.

I'd rather search for a CS6  full package as I need Photoshop, Dreamweaver and After Effects. So for me to go on a month to month basis might turn out to be quite expensive.

I just wish they would also allow a once-off purchase of the latest version. I mean I might use it for the next year or maybe 10.
