The reason I have started to think about this is I have a Win XP Duo
Core processor with 2GB of Ram, and I am amazed at how slow Photoshop
CS3 loads, especially when I compare the speed of Photoshop CS3 running
on an older Mac

I have 4 Gb and noticed the same thing. A video app I have is even
slower, but comes right up on a Mac at Mrs. Wave's school machine.

I am thinking about reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling WinXP
with just the software we currently run. My daughters have a tendency
to download an install new software just to check it out. Windows does
not do a good job completely uninstalling the software.

I currently have both CS2 and CS3 on my computer. As soon as i can get
my wife converted to CS3 I will do a new install and leave off CS2 and
all the other junk that ends up on a computer used by teenagers. My
wife absolutely hates to upgrade software, so I will have to walk her
through the advantages of CS3.
