The Gimp 2.4 was released today and it includes a number of new features, like scalable brushes, align tool, new selection tools, color Management and soft-proofing, Red Eye removal and much more. Unfortunately, there is still no 16bit per pixel support, which is useful for digital photography editing.

Thats fine if you want to edit a image and pay £300-£400 for Photoshop but GIMP does what it does rather well, image manipulation.
2.4 is so much faster than 2.2 I can tell you, SMP support blows 2.2 away and that in itself is worth the wait. The GIMP comes with all most versions of Linux, can't say that for Photoshop, they are the same right because thats what people keep saying.
