After thinking about it, the 99 dollars actually sounds more like what I
paid - twice though :-(

Thanks, guys, for all the useful information. I'll be looking at the web
sites you suggest.

Regarding the limitations of PE, the one I've been concerned about is the
omission of Curves. However, a free substitute (SmartCurve) for Curves is
available from http://free.pages.at/easyfilter/curves.html as a plug-in. It
seems to work well and might even be superior to Curves provided by Adobe in
the full version of Photoshop.

Adobe forums has a newsgroup just for Photoshop elements, also for
everyother one of there programs. I used to lurk on the elements one
untill I upgraded to Photoshop CS2,CS3. There was a large number of very
good and ful people there.
Go to Adobes web site and look for user to user groups.
