Digital BW, The Print

Hi (again!) Paul,

And also, if you have 4GB of RAM it is possible to set up XP Pro (not Home) to
give 3GB to PS and leave the remaining gig for the OS. You need a utility from
the Windows 2000 Server resource kit in order to patch the Photoshop
executable file so it will make use of the available memory, and you also need
to edit the c:\boot.ini file. The following articles tell you what you need to
know:

The remaining gig gets used by the OS, probably mostly for a huge disk cache,
as well as for any other apps that may be open. It means that PS really really
has a full two gigs to run in.
