While a 64 bit OS may have a minor speed advantage, its main purpose is it's possibility to address more than 4 GB of RAM. So if you have a computer which is limited to 4 GB of RAM, then a 64 bit OS (or a 64 bit application for that matter) has absolutely no advantage over a 32 bit one. If however you have a computer with more RAM, then you maust install a 64 bit OS to use it. And depending on how "serious" you work with photoshop, 4 GB may or may not be enough for effective work. > The key thing is to get > the most modern graphics processor, either ATI or NVIDIA, you can as > only that will allow for any GPU accelerated processing Which is of little concern for most photoshop tasks. If you really care about performance, then forget about laptops. Thexy are inherently slower than desktop machines.

I wrote 'GPU'. See: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/404/kb404898.html "To maximize Photoshop's OpenGL features, consider a card with a fast single GPU. Photoshop will not work with more than one GPU."

With a decent PC (windows based) photoshop can and will run smoothly. I have no MAC's here, and photoshop runs fine with no issue. So 'GET A MAC' is utter BS!

Have you ever worked with PS on a MAC? Have you ever looked at the graphics business? MOST (like 90%) use MACS and the MACS can do things better AND don't fail anywhere near as often as CS 4 does on a PC. I am using a PC. I sometimes work with folks that have MACS. They have 1% of the headaches that I do, especially in converting formats.
