&gt; if you go to a good college Windows is discouraged for CS in favor of Unix<p>You realize students in architecture or graphic design don&#x27;t care about your petty OS war right? and you&#x27;re statement is completely false. I went to a good college and I learned both server administration on Unix and Windows.<p>&gt; Are people really PAYING to learn photoshop? Waste of money.<p>People are paying for an education that will get them a job, if the industry mandates the use of Photoshop for a specific professional task it&#x27;s in the interest of a student to learn it. And obviously you don&#x27;t know Photoshop, like at all or you wouldn&#x27;t say the things you&#x27;re say.<p>&gt; Word processors and photoshop do not require college classes to learn. They should just be a part of local community colleges that allow people to earn certificates for using office software.<p>You realize there is a world between learning a word processor and Photoshop for a pro usage ? no you don&#x27;t. Otherwise you wouldn&#x27;t say such ignorant thing.<p>The problem is that you are a programmer and you think every discipline works like computer science where everything is in the cloud ... it doesn&#x27;t.
