Hi Adam,

The computer requirements for digital imaging are FAR different than they
are for sending and receiving email.  If you plan on doing digital imaging,
you more or less want to get PhotoShop (a multi-hundred dollar or so program
in and of it self) or something of that ilk, you need a reasonably fast
computer, with a decent amount of memory and disk space.  To store you
digital images you need a CD burner (or other suitable storage device).
Again, vastly different requirements than for email.

Nothing straw about it!

Austin
