On their latest episode, the
Photoshop TV guys gave an answer to a viewer-submitted question that I thought was worth posting. The question dealt
with the state of Apple's new Intel-based Macs and the fact that any software that isn't specifically compiled to run
on them, including the Creative Suite, has to run in an emulation environment, which can deal a blow to the
application's overall speed and your productivity.It was the opinion of the Photoshop TV guys that Adobe might not offer any kind of update/upgrade of CS or CS2 until Adobe releases a truly new version - CS3 - for which there is no present ETA. I honestly hope this is not the case, and that they take some sort of route like Apple has with their pro apps in offering a $50 Intel-based upgrade, as long as you turn in your discs.
What do you TUPW readers think of this? Are you Mac-using readers already cancelling your iMac Dual Core and MacBook Pro orders until this all gets settled? Sound off.








1. Having just purchased a sweet new DSLR I've been considering getting a Mac based computer, preferrably a laptop and the new Intel based ones sounded really interesting. This will definetly affect that decision.
