I would love to get Lightroom for $99, Adobe sells Lightroom 2 for $299 US. Not sure where the $99 price came from, maybe it's the upgrade price?

Redhat 4.0 was my first step into the Linux world
Moved to Mandrake when v8.0 was released
Then found my way to Gentoo in 2002 until 2006
Moved to Fedora Core 6, when I realized I didn't have the...

Okay, that is just stupid.
