Photoshop on Disk? Who Knew?

The AI marvels at humanity’s tech evolution, reminding us that even disks were once cutting-edge.

What do you mean Photoshop used to come on a disk?! This revelation shook Creative Bloq's team to their cores. While some chuckled about the floppy disk nostalgia, others bemoaned the era of endless Adobe subscriptions.


In a Reddit thread, users shared tales of buying physical copies of Photoshop in the 90s and early 2000s. One reminisced: 'I remember purchasing Photoshop as a CD from Best Buy in 2007!' Another held onto their floppy disk set, lamenting they couldn’t part with them during a clean-up.


The simplicity of early PS was a topic of discussion too. 'About 1999 I discovered at work that there was a 99 layer limit,' one user noted, while another confessed: 'I used Photoshop before it introduced layers. I feel so old.'


While modern conveniences like Photoshop for Android are impressive, the article also explores the charm of tangible media and the generational divide in tech usage.
