  17. I was having an argument with a friend about new features being added to software. I always thought that added features were just a way to repackage and sell more copies of the same software. My friend showed me this video http://tv.adobe.com/watch/cs6-creative-cloud-feature-tour-for-web/whats-new-in-illustrator-cs6/?sdid=JYNWZ and in 2minutes I was convinced. I downloaded the new Illustrator from here http://www.adobe.com/in/downloads/?sdid=JUMTN and I’m probably going to buy the full version soon!
