Re: Photo editing with an older (& slow) notebook

Current memory is 512MB and the obvious answer is to upgrade to 1 gig. However, what I don't know is if a more modern (I am using PSP v8) Photo editor would help?
Very much doubt it, "more modern" usually means "more features" which means "more bloat" increasing processor & memory requirements.
Could I suggest that you try doing at least basic editing using something like Irfanview, which is more competent than most people imagine - even if it is by no means a competitor to PSE let alone CS3, it does basic curves & levels, cropping, resizing, rotating etc. competently and at lightning speed compared with the heavyweight commercial stuff.
