I had the Dell version as well, loved it, then upgraded to the Corel Paint Shop Pro Studio X2 for just under $100. I also use it on a Toshiba Laptop as well as my regular desktop. It does many, many things my dad's $600 full Photo Shop does for a LOT less money, and mine didn't require classes to learn how to run it either.

The newest version they have out now is the X3 (one version up from mine). I'd highly reccomend it based on ease of use, price, and ability to do lots of things Photo Shop does.
