Best system in the world, capitalist economies, pity about some of its ugly sides. There will be some changes when I am ruler of the world. -- dorayme

I better go download some WebKit nightly builds. More new software! I don't want anything on my computer that is older than a half hour. Old software should go off and die. > I am not impressed by your gullible acceptance of greedy capitalist > ploys.

I was so impressed by shiny new Apple stuff glistening in the Apple Store that I bought two of them. If the iMac had a matte display, I would have bought that too!

Does that matter? Not enough information. What model exactly, year etc. Yes, its crucial. See thread. Perhaps you are missing David E's excellent posts? Mine is (presumably - it is still to arrive) the latest Macbook (not the Pro). I *assume* that if you are using CS3 OK it will work on mine but who knows? The information I am getting on this from this Usenet group does not fill me with confidence that any software more than 2 seconds old will work on any Apple product that is less than 1 second old. <g> -- dorayme |
