Microsoft launches digital image software suite
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft is out with Digital Image Suite 9, a product looking to carve into Adobe Systems market lead in the digital imaging software market. But Microsoft's digital imaging software, which has some of the same features to Adobe's PhotoShop, is neither as robust, nor as expensive. But that's the idea: Microsoft is marketing the new software package through its Home Retail Division, while Adobe is targeting more advanced consumers and professional photographers.
The company claims that the new Digital Image Suite 9 is the only product available today that gives consumers "everything they need in digital imaging software, including advanced organizational and photo-editing tools, new levels of creativity with professional-quality photo projects."
