PhotoShop try-out v2.5.1b21 & E/D 1.99q12



Informal user report.

I would like to say well done to ARDI as I'm well impressed with
1.99q12

I am running  E/D 1.99q12 on a 486dx33, 12meg ram 100meg hdd & Dos
6.22 & also an old  Gravis Ultrasound card (which when running the SB
emulator as well sounds good from Executor :-))

I bought 'Complete Idiots guide to Photoshop' ages ago ... & MAC cdrom
was useless to me at the time.  I tried to install it into an earlier
version of E/D... no chance.. but now :-))) 1.99q12 let me install it 

 copied the .sit off the cdrom into a Macvolume.. & expanded it &
installed it. The run the prog & all seemed well.  I could look at
PICT file from another Mac proggy  & a TIF file from the DOS part of
the HDD (Took AGES tho).. not checked much else out, but it doesnt see
the .JPG dos files tho. 

The Photoshop version I'm using is v2.5.1b21 & It took 2 minutes to
get from clicking on the icon to being able to do anything with the
prog. The it took 30seconds to load a Mac PICT file of 192k  & I
edited it a bit (that took ages to take effect) & I tried out a change
of mode from RGB to Indexed colour,  that took just under two minutes
as a small guide to the kind of speed...There is no save facility in
the prog (It's a 'try-out version) & I've not got around to installing
the 'plug-ins' yet, but It works!!  

I initially tried running the  -info recommendations of appzone3.42m
& got out of memory error.. So I ran it with 10meg  That sorted things
out..

I am looking forward to getting my CDROM when they're ready. Once
again .**Well done ARDI crew**   I'm glad I registered..
