I use Elements 4 now but Elements 5 is wrapped under the tree :-) The computer had XP Media Edition but I switched to XP Pro. BIG DIFFERENCE. Stay away from Media Edition. Too much crap always running in the background and it takes a computer guru to disable it readily. Most of my friends who are into computer say the AMD technology is currently on top of the heap. That all seems to swap around over time.
Walt =========== Thanks. I was wondering about Media Edition. I program and I need XP Pro for that. Supposedly Media Edition is a subset of XP Pro, but I haven't been so sure. Marnie -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
