      Typical case of “your mileage may vary”. Try that line on someone who only tangentially uses PS but does video editing with Premiere and After Effects all the time. To those, the Mercury playback engine, Rotobrush and the move to 64bit in those apps have much more value. Likewise, Dreamweaver has gotten better CSS handling and previewing as well as various code enhancements and while it may perhaps be less posh and obvious, it clearly is an important thing to a web designer. So for what it’s worth – where the crown jewel goes is pretty much a case of what you do every day.
