Re: OT: Anyone running PS7 on a Mac?
Hey Cotty, I'm running PS 7 on OS X. But I boot into OS 9 when I need to do my printing (because Epson can't seem to put together a half decent driver for OS X). Even though I installed it in OS X, it runs just fine in OS 9. What's it doing? Have you donwloaded the updates for it??

Cotty, I don't have a Mac but, from what I read it is stable as long as you can allocate enough memory for it. If you want, I'll look to see what they recommend. OS-X and Windows both automatically allocate memory. Len --- Hi gang, Anyone running Photoshop 7 on a Mac under 9.X and *not* OS X ? Any issues that you have found?

Sometimes when I want to drag and drop graphics file photoshop icon simply "swallow" it, acting like a plain folder. Remedy is to open Photoshop Program package, search for program file itself and make alias of it - then it works flawless. -- Best Regards Sylwek

But on the whole, it's an equally frustrating machine, just in different ways. I could go on about it, but I've already vented too many times about my switch to the Mac. I even wrote to Apple about my "switch" experience. For some reason, they didn't publish it ; ) Mark __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.yahoo.com

The print driver has worked fine except that it lacks the two (and maybe more) features I had listed. This is well documented on the Epson website. Epson has really screwed the pooch when it comes to OS X. I still don't have a driver for my 1200U Photo and must rely on Vuescan. Mark __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

It's a matter of money, of course. Do you develop stuff for minority platforms? Or do you develop stuff for the majority platform? Do you want to sell millions of copies, or just thousands? It's just business. There are plenty of small companies to fill the little niches. The big ones have too much overhead to put a lot of effort into something only a few are going to buy. Hamrick doesn't have to sell millions of copies to make a good living, so he is comfortable in his niche, and does great things.

I'm sure it's been done. (But the results were embarrassing to management so the report was suppressed).

Meetings, WAS: Re: OT: Anyone running PS7 on a Mac?
> Well, I guess that must be the answer. Has anyone ever derived a > productivity to meeting ratio? Dan, One of the things my last employer did right was that they had a corporate rule limiting all meetings to no more than 1 hour. Amazingly effective--actually forced people to get things done during the meeting and then allowed them to do real work during the rest of the day. The employer before that never had meetings, and that was worse than too many meetings. Nobody was ever on the same page and there was never any face-to-face to lighten up the office-political shenanigans. It sucked. --Mike

One of my former bosses said "no chairs makes for shorter meetings", and he enforced the rule that chairs were not allowed in meeting rooms unless customers were present in the meeting. It did, in fact, make for shorter meetings. On top of that, people seemed less inclined to screw around while standing. :-) TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
