Interestingly enough, I'd also be interested in changing the menu font size, but I want to make it bigger. My wife is legally blind and can't see the menus at our default screen size of 1600x1024. While I can pop our monitor to 800x512, that doesn't…

As to compatibility, Elements reads and writes standard .psd files with all layers and layer styles intact. If you try to open a Photoshop file using features that aren't supported in Elements (16 bits per channel for example), the program asks you …

Two words: Photoshop Elements. It offers next to all the power of Photoshop at an extremely attractive price. It's worlds better than Photoshop LE. Unless you're doing professional work, I'm hard-pressed to see why you'd need the full version of Pho…

There are all kinds of resellers who will let you try out Final Cut Pro at their locations. Same with a car, a camcorder, whatever. You don't just get to take those items home for a few weeks to give them a try and then give them back used. Would th…

I'd check with Apple to see if they can help you install your evaluation version. Make sure you give them your real name and home phone number, since sometimes the calls get cut off. Wait, you did download the evaluation version from Apple, didn'…

No, it doesn't need to be blank to partition it, but as far as I know (unless you're willing to run really big risks), there's no way to re-partition a hard drive under any MacOS without losing the data on it. FWB Hard Disk Toolkit claims to do this…

Well, I went ahead and sprang for the Dell. Grand total charged to my card (i.e., including shipping and tax) was $1147. For that, I got a Dimension 4550 with 2.40 GHz processor, 640 MB of RAM, 60 GB hard drive, 16X DVD ROM drive, Radeon 9700 (not p…

Very interesting -- you're obviously well acquainted with the broadcast world. The note about video being processed by the graphics card strikes me as exactly on-point. One of the comments that have been made in the past (I believe by Andrew Wel…
