If money is an issue, you might want to consider Krita, which is open source and free.
Even though Krita focuses on digital painting, compared to old gentle Photoshop 5 it features (many) more general image editing tools. These include creating presets for levels and curves that you mention you want.
The user interface is quite similar to Photoshop, but there are of course differences.
If you meant Photoshop CS5: even in that case Krita is a good free alternative. Can't hurt to try it and see if it fits your needs.
