Plus, we were so charmed last week by Karen Gauthier (of GridIron Software, but she also flashes her credentials as former product manager of Photoshop) that we invited her back as well. And so, with such Photoshop vets around, we decided to discuss that most venerable of topics: The History of Photoshop.
