As someone who has spoken with Gene extensively, I think his instincts are spot-on.
I would advise him to wait until an Intel-native version of PS Elements becomes available (can't be much longer now) and then sell the CS2 Photoshop he has. It is WAY overkill for what he most likely wants to do -- heck, most of the tools you need for basic cropping and enhancement are actually IN IPHOTO already! PS Elements will add a few nice tools in an easy environment (which Gene already knows) for that "little extra" some photos might need.
