Re: [Digital BW] CS3 and RAM use

2007-05-05 by Alan Kearney

Patrick, I don't think so. This link,
http://news.com.com/8301-10784_3-6146229-7.html

is a Blog note from CNet about PS CS 3 NOT being a 64 bit app. It was  
written back in Dec 06 so things could have changed by now.

This link,
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=320005

is a tech paper from Adobe talking about memory allotment for PC's  
and Mac's.

It seems that the issue of using more RAM in PS is an OS issue, not a  
Photoshop one.

Good luck, Alan
