Re: photoshop CS?

[Elgenper <elgenper@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have CS, and like it a lot.  I upgraded from Elements 2, so I cannot 
compare to PS 7 directly.  CS is a HUGE improvement over Elements: 
curves, channels, full colour management, and the ability to make 
actions.

One thing that is NOT nearly good enough is the File Browser.  It is 
extremely sluggish.  I have a brand new Mac G5 with 2.5 GB of Ram 
(assigned 2 GB to PS, the maximum that PS can handle), and made a 
dedicated PS scratch partition at the bottom of a second internal 
drive, so it cannot possibly be insufficient hardware.  Nothing else is 
sluggish about PS CS, however; every once in a while I handle 120 MB 
scans from old 4X5 negs, and that´s no problem.

I would certainly recommend the upgrade to anybody who can justify the 
cost, and who knows (or is willing to learn) how to use it.  Only, 
don´t count on the File Browser to really review lots of images; 
personally I use iView Media Pro for that.

Good luck!
