Most if not all new computers are 64-bit, but any 32-bit software loads up easily enough in the appropriate 32-bit section, x86 I think is the nomenclature.

Even Photoshop 7, now getting fairly old, installs without glitches.

I do quite a few workshops using Photoshop and the most usual problem is how the sharpening is done.

It's worth a full exploration of sharpening techniques, not just a few lines, but Martin Evening's books give us everything we need.

When some users have been shown how to sharpen, they are amazed at how sharp their images really can be.

If you send me the correct links by PM I'll put them in for you. Alternatively, make a new post and I'll remove the defunct one.

I saw the NEC monitors at Focus a couple of years ago - stunning quality.

The Dell 2209WA I use is very similar in that effortless, kind-to-the-eyes way that can be rare amongst flat screens. Many are rather harsh.

It might be worth your while doing a search on the forum as I think this lens has been the subject of a few threads over the past year or so.

Some people prefer it the other way round, so it would need to be an option.

If you make a report describing what you would like and why, IT will put it in the mix I'm sure. Go to Report Problem/Make Suggestion at the bottom of any page.

In the meantime, make sure you stay logged in and use the green highlighted buttons to go to last unread post.

The number had to be added so that JP Service Solutions could identify who was entitled to the 20% discount on Pentax repairs. This was done quite quickly so that someone could send their camera back for repair.

Most clubs have membership numbers that are used for one thing or another.

Probably is an ironic sort of statement in English, as per, for example Tom Baker's Dr Who saying to Countess Scarleone, "You're a beautiful woman, probably..." (City of Death, 1979)

The meaning of my statement was't literal.

There has been plenty of discussion, quite free disucssion as well, but eventually if it just carries on maybe it's just being stirred for the sake of it. Then it needs to stop.

You have a PM in reply to yours, please take the discussion there as I have invited your opinions.
