However, is that really that much different from any other "power" product? (I wouldn't consider Powerpoint a "power" product though.)
That's correct, but there's another detail: Photoshop has never, to my knowledge, been marketed as a product for Joe Blow end user. Microsoft, on the other hand, regularly does things like market FrontPage as a tool that will let anyone create a professional webpage, regardless of whether or not they have clue-one about designing and building a website.

That's a good point. A product where you may seem the same thing occur is Adobe Photoshop. Flexible, but inexperienced users tend to produce the same end results, that look very amateurish.
