Actually I was an ACDSee fan beginning from versions 1 to 9 skipping versions in between - until I met Lightroom, a match made in heaven - LOL.
Seriously, I found ACDSee to be very gimmicky, not user friendly and yes it would crash during an edit. Like other software out there, I find it very bloated and in my experience with said product it does a much better job of managing your library than an image editing solution in itself.
IMHO - I would avoid it where possible though I would rate it a 6 out of 10.

My youngest daughter has FINALLY decided what to go to college for and just received her student ID!!!! So of course WE need to get a few computer programs! YIPPPEEEE!!!!
I tried the free version of lightroom awhile back and to be honest ...I found it to be the hardest program to self-teach! I should have took a self-portrait of the look on my face whenever I opened it! I just couldn
Lightroom is a must. Just after I got my PS, they came out with a combo pack and I can

I think I am going to take the leap and get both Lightroom & PS and toss alot of the pther programs I have. Maybe once I view alot of the online tutorials, things will fall into place.
As far as going Mac, not an option at this stage of the game after just buying windows 7 and a number of other things to upgrade what I have.
Denise, if you hoping to use your daughter

Denise, there's a lot of LR users here so any help is nearby. I'm also willing to help you out with the first steps if it's needed. I need to do a lot of LR and PS myself, since I'm way behind with sorting and editing []
To bad you're not in Europe though. Adobe Europe gives Students and Teachers great deals if you buy Lightroom + another program or pack. Valid till 10th of April. It's in the online Adobe store.
There might also be such a thing in the Adobe US department. I'd suggest you to check it out.

I see Adobe US store also has actions: Link
Don't know if they are cheaper than Amazon, but it's worth checking out.
Ps: it seems that it's no problem to order more than 1 item, since they have package deals [A]
Thanks, Jan!!![] I am going to need tons of help to really get my head wrapped around this!
If I go thru Amazon so I can get both, total is $270.
