I have a mild obsession with new software, and Adobe just released Creative Suite 4 a few days ago. Naturally, I wanted to give it a go. I searched the torrents, and only found pre-releases. A few Google searches left me disappointed, saying that Adobe didn’t plan on releasing trials of its new products until sometime in November.
Then, I stumbled on this page: http://secretsoftheinternets.wordpress.com/2008/10/17/download-the-adobe-cs4-suite-early/ that gave me a tip. It was just a bit off…
You need to have an Adobe Account, and start some trial download – like Adobe Acrobat 9. Cancel the download after a few seconds, then you can download the CS4 Master Collection by copying and pasting BOTH of these into your browser or download manager:
http://trials.adobe.com/Applications/MastCol/CS4/Win/ADBESTAMCS4_LS1.exe
http://trials.adobe.com/Applications/MastCol/CS4/Win/ADBESTAMCS4_LS1.7z
5.4Gb later, you’ll have the trials!
Alternatively, I JUST stumbled upon a site that has links to each component, take a look if you don’t want to download the whole suite: http://forums.gametrailers.com/showthread.php?t=592602
Have fun.
