It's more than a good idea -- what with everyone in this "I want to get into digital photography" age. Adobe then has a chance to get people to use the software, making it known household-wide and really get a taste of SOME of what photoshop can do; granted Adobe offers trial version(s), but to me I would be more likely to use a software if I knew I wasn't going to get spammed about buying it only a week after downloading it......
