So do I.  It is just that I have heard that Adobe PhotoShop has some features 
/ capabilities that GIMP lacks -- these features / capabilities *might* be 
needed for some "professional" use caes.  Since I have never had a computer 
running MacOSX or MS-Windows [at least not as a desktop machine], I have never 
used PhotoShop, so I don't really know that *exact* additional features / 
capabilities that PhotoShop has.  I am not really a "professional" graphic 
design / photo editor, so I suspect I would not need those additional features 
/ capabilities anyway -- GIMP does everything *I* have any need to do.  (I 
*believe* some of it includes color models used for print media and maybe some 
other things -- I only use GIMP for image editing for on-line [eg html] and 
PDF documentation, I don't need that sort of functionallity.)
