Win xp pro, xp and vista -we have them all, each advancement was worse... Our 3 year old hp hard drive (the win xp) and motherboard died a couple of months ago. We had so many gigs available on the HD, and it was barely used. I am sick of installing new hardware, formatting, updating and the security issues. I can’t stand it. Can you imagine freeping on a blackberry? My eyes suffered big time. 8-/
We have a laptop w/vista and a used desktop xp pro. Both are highly annoying.
If it weren’t for reading a freeper’s comments, I wouldn’t have known to not surf under the administrators user name...I thought I was well versed at this.
I’ll stop now—my BP is rising cause I am remembering all the bad windows memories. I store nothing on the harddrive anymore.
I also prefer my $400 35m film camera. I can get film and a cd of pics. Can’t stand digitals—we have the instant gratification, hundreds that have yet to be developed. We lost so many great pictures that we failed to back up when I had to reformat because of NORTON’s corruption of the boot up...Arrgh!
Do you need a counselor, sweetie? Maybe a shrink?
Sheesh - you cultists are such drama queens.
Your problem is editing and storing digital pix on a PC. Use Photoshop or Elements for Mac, save to an external HD, burn DVDs to save in a physically separate location, and you're bulletproof.
I don’t know how in depth you go with pic editing but iPhoto is terrific.(comes with OSX)
You can’t add a head to a body or anything like that but normal highlighting, sharpening, color enhancement, etc, it’s superior to most I’ve used.
You are working with the original, full screen in real time as opposed to comparison thumbnails.
And it keeps the original that you can change at any time.
Great organization also.
I love it.
