[ ... ]. Regardless of the claims of GIMP evangelists/advocates it is not the equal of Photoshop CS6/CC, PSE, or lightroom. [ ... ]
Of course Gimp isn't equal to Photoshop etc. There are lots of things Photoshop does that Gimp doesn't do.
There are however, things Gimp does that Photoshop doesn't.very, very few and nothing that's particularly common or all that useful.
The vast bulk of things a person needs to do though can be done with either.as they can with iphoto, picasa, and zillions of other apps. most people don't need much.
if your needs are simple then even the gimp is overkill.
[ Oh, and BTW, many, if not most Gimp users have used Photoshop.bullshit.
for instance, our resident gimp zealot readily admits he has never used photoshop.
So you may want to make up another 'fact' to explain why there are many, many happy and success Gimp users. ]nowhere near as many as photoshop users.
