PS CS2 Mac JPEG size estimate grossly wrong

2005-11-18 by Steve Kale

Anyone noticed that when saving a file as a jpeg in PS CS2 for Mac that the file size estimate 
(which is given to TWO DECIMAL PLACES) is miles off.   For example, I saved a 600x480 pixel 
image at setting 6.  The estimated file size was 131.75K.  The actual file size was 225K 
according to Bridge and 228K according to Finder.
