I'm a long-time PC user, I mean Waaay back -- we're talkin DOS
Anyway, I'm having a time trying to decide if I want to stay with Window's OS, i.e Win7 based machine, or move to a Mac.
Ultimately, I want to be able to process and output prints from scanned 4x5 negs.
At the moment, I’m running 32-bit version of Windows Vista with 4 Gigs of RAM.
Photoshop CS3 doesn’t like it and neither do I at least not for image processing
(32-bit Vista only addresses 3 Gigs).
I considered upgrading to the 64-bit version of Vista prior to the release of WIN7 but got so frustrated with it that I actually sent an email to Microsoft saying that I was fed up with all the glitches and updates, etc. and that I was throwing in the towel and moving to a different OS.
However, I need to rethink that strategy and consider the cost effectiveness of such a move.
I’d like to hear from Win7 users that are using Photoshop CS3,4 or 5 and Lightroom, etc., and their experiences good or bad. I’d also like to hear what configuration they finally settled on that improved image processing.
