I bought CS4 to go with my little Lenovo, with 4 gigs. I don't have to go make coffee while the pictures load. I usta start a scan, and go for a walk. Now I say by the computer, and get the job done. There is an application for the I-phone that will let you control your DSLR and see what it sees on your phone. Now if they make Photoshop CS5 Mobile we're in business.
