So what will new owners mean? If White Star Lines had a new owner would it have meant the Titanic wouldn't have hit the iceberg?

My guess is that nothing will change. As long as those now in control of development stay then nothing will change. They need new fresh ideas and some new ears that will listen to the market. I keep reading this forum simply in hope that PSP 'improves ' to the point that I can once again call it my favorite editor.
