Digital BW, The Print

I just installed an upgrade to Photoshop CS and am wondering if I can get some help 
with this OT question.  I now seem to have 3 copies of PS installed on my Mac G4 
Powerbook - PS 7 in OS-X, PS 7 in OS-9, and now PS 8 in OS-X.  Given that they take 
roughly 250mb each and I am running out of disk space, can anyone think of a 
reason why I wouldn't dump, say, PS 7 in OS-X? 

(I haven't checked but presumably there is an uninstall function in the original PS-7 
cd....?)

BTW, as I think back to earlier discussions on this forum, it is interesting that product 
activation is only required for Windows users...

Thanks in advance

Steve

I would check and make sure any third party plug-ins, etc that worked 
in PS7 worked in PSCS. Save any actions, etc. then you can deep six 7. 
Do you need PS7 in OS9 for printing or something? Otherwise I would 
remove that also.

Interesting, no product activation for Mac PSCS? Have you tried to 
install (and run) it on another computer? I thought it sends out a blip 
to Adobe every time you launch to verify computer/software marriage :)

Thanks.  I seem to have managed to copy in the few plug-ins and actions I h=
ad with PS-
7.  (I am still trying to figure out what I am meant to do with the Goodies=
 that were 
included with PS-CS.....) How do I make sure that I have removed everything=
 in relation 
to PS-7?  (There is no uninstall feature on the original installation cd)  =


No I have not tried to install and run it on another computer (and have no =
need to) - 
both CS and 7 are bought and paid for and I only have 1 computer.  I just t=
hought that it 
was odd that there is an additional requirement for Windows users over Mac.=
  Re a "blip", 
I have no idea if it does this or not - if so, why not the same approach fo=
r Windows 
users?

BTW, given this is off-topic I am happy to be contacted off-list re this re=
quest for help.

Thanks again

Steve
