Default Photoshop Updates

Thanks all. Boy, that was more information that I was expecting. Once again, this place rules!!!

Guas, yeah, I was aware of most of what you posted. I was a Mac user for most of my computer "life" and switched to PC's only recently because I got tired of PC's having more software available. I have a great machine. Only a year old and still "somewhat" current (somewhat being the operative word in that sentence). You know how fast technology changes.

Anyway, what I did not count on when I got this current system is getting heavily into PS. Dual processors don't help most users but they DO help graphics and photography folks. I have up graded to 750Mb of ram and my machine STILL slows down when doing a lot of PS work. I can live with the now but it will start making me crazy at some point in the future and it will be time to get a new machine. As my needs for software variety don't seem to be as pressing as I thought they would I was considering switching back even at the cost of all new peripherals (as dumb as that is).

When I saw that new G5 w/ all the goodies it offers folks who use graphics and then couple that with that stunning 23" HD Cinema display and I start thinking about what I need to sell to be able to get that equipment. Let me see, my house, car, guard cat....okay, just kidding but I really am (and always have been) a hardware junkie.

I can't afford it now anyway so it's out of the question. My concern was for personal files being able to make the switch. As I mentioned, I knew software wouldn't.

Thanks also for the control to turn off the updates. You say that's okay as most of them are really not worth having???

Thanks

Not, that's not what I said Lee. They just don't have any updates...

Of course they have an update like v6.01 for PS 6 and v7.01 for PS 7 and that's about it. In all those years, and anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, I've only seen vx.01 updates.

I remember the time when 7.01 came out; members on every PS related board were talking about it. An update for Photoshop makes headlines, so I don't see the need for Photoshop's update that only slows down Photoshop or causes problems like you have Lee.

It's just my personal opinion though

Absolutely true, but with this you also hit the nail on the head!

I bought some quite expensive software, but I was happy that I was able to spread all my purchases over several years.

The moment that I want to switch to Mac, I have to replace it all at once, simply because I still use all of them. But hey, I'm not going to pay several thousand dollars just to replace all my software! [shocked]

See, so this has nothing to do which system is good or bad. I would have the same problems as a Mac user who wants to make a switch to Windows

Gaussian, just to clarify what I said.

If you switch from PC to Mac, you can get an equivalent cross grade of the software. (From Adobe at least) All that is required is a statement that the original software has been destroyed.

Cheers Al
