A further observation from an interested observer, who is not a professional photographer, but somebody who employs digital photography to produce paintings: To generalise greatly, threads about PS7, PS CS, colour printing and monitors, are to me, advanced and informative, and contain cutting edge information. Threads to do with operating systems, hard disk drives, and how to make produce (c) symbols, while interesting might treated with disdain on a Windows or Mac site. As a result I would think twice about asking a basic photoshop question, but not a basic windows question. This is not a criticism of the list - just inevitable - you are professional manipulators of digital images - you have that knowledge in common, or else presumably you would soon fail to be "professional". But through nobody's fault, you have varying knowlege about computers. A similar debate in traditional photography might be, how much does the practitioner have to know about the chemistry of the processes he or she uses.
