"By now you have probably figured out that we aren't releasing Universal Binaries of our current application versions. If you haven't, all you need to know is pretty explicitly spelled out here [.pdf]. 'But, c'mon', I hear people saying, 'Steve said it was just a recompile!' Or, 'Back during the PowerPC transition, you guys released a patch!' Well, this time is different. And I really wish it weren't."

Lots of graphic artists no longer do print work. An increasing amount of them do art that will only exist in electronic form, appearing in such mediums as TV, films and videogames.
This is true.
But press is still the preeminent medium, and as soon as somebody grabs some of their stills for publication on paper, guess what?
It's got to go through something with CMYK support.
I've got friends going through Art School, too. GIMP is not used/taught because it's not likely to be a tool they use on the job.
However, I will say that as soon as CMYK support is coded into GIMP (despite its kludgy interface) it will grow by leaps and bounds .
