I’m curious about the compatibility with all Adobe products, but since I use Photoshop, I was wondering…Does Adobe software run compatible with AMD processors? Perferably the new 64-bit processors?

I have been using an AMD Athlon forever, it seems, and I have no problems.

About the 64 bit, we will have to wait and see, unless Chris Cox or another PS engineer already knows.

I upgraded to AMD 64 3200+ with XP home and it works just fine with Adobe. Coming from a Pentium 3 600mhg system this new computer smokes. Can’t wait for the new 64 bit programs to be implemented to really take advantage of my system.

The AMD OPTERON MP beats the Apple G5 Dual Machine in the PS tests… I was shocked to see this! Imagine if PS was optimized for Windows (like on OSX)…. Follow this link…

I’ll Chris C the bother – what you just wrote is bo..ocks! PS is no more optimised for OSX than you are (think about it)

Sorry, but you’ll be waiting quite some time since there isn’t a 64 bit operating system out yet.

Actually, the Opteron is a little slower than the G5 in Photoshop.

Photoshop is optimized for all current, common processors (sorry, no TransMeta opts.).

And Photoshop works just fine on AMD processors, including the Athlon 64 and Opteron.
