This may not be the value it seems to be. These are pretty antique as far as applications go, and might be okay to learn the basics with before getting a "real version," but you're going to have trouble working with industry folk using them. They were originally released in <i>2005</i>. If you run OS X Lion or later, you'll probably have better luck booting into a Windows VM or using WINE or CrossOver than getting the Mac versions going:<p>Mac OS X v.10.2.8–v.10.3.8. PowerPC® G4 or G5 processor<p>Microsoft® Windows® 2000/Windows XP. Intel® Pentium® III or 4 processor<p>They're also not eligible for upgrade pricing to Creative Cloud (CS3+). Most professionals I work with upgrade every couple of versions; I don't know anyone still using even CS4, for example.
