That's not true. I don't work with SVGs, so I can't comment on Illustrator vs. Inkscape, but Photoshop certainly doesn't do everything better than the GIMP. I find Photoshop's UI to be more intuitive because I learned it first, but obviously me not having read the Gimp manual isn't a reason as to why Photoshop is superior. The GIMP is much better than Photoshop for scripting, and Photoshop has some presets that the GIMP doesn't. It's really a tossup, and when you factor in the price tag, the GIMP is a no-brainer unless you need more than 8-bit color support.
